FREE DISTRICT SEMINARS
Free district seminars, offering essential networking and career enhancement tools, are scheduled annually across the country for current ISI Professional members and arena staff.
Instructor seminars provide a venue for skating instructors and skating directors to discuss the latest in teaching techniques, industry trends and rule revisions.
Instructors participate in video judging exercises while sharing tips and helpful hints. A wealth of industry updates and educational information is included in each
year’s seminar manual, distributed at no charge to all attendees.
Some districts also incorporate ISI Ice Skating Instructor Training
sessions into their seminar schedule, allowing coaches to maximize their educational opportunity (separate registration fee required).
Following are seminar dates available at press time. For more details or if your district seminar is not listed below, please watch skateisi.org/seminars for updates or contact your ISI district director.
