Certified is a program that demands

"... the highest level of proficiency from patrollers through training and testing and would promote a level of patrolling in which there would be no compromise with excellence in skiing, first aid, patrol management, administration and leadership."
— George Wesson [1921-2010], who developed the Certified Program for NSP and subsequently for Southern Division.

  • Module 1: Area Operations and Risk Management
  • Module 2: Avalanche Management
  • Module 3: Emergency Care
  • Module 4: Lift Evacuation and Rope Knowledge
  • Module 5: Skiing/Snowboarding
