Following the request of some Members and Snowsports instructors, we are now willing to precise the position of ISIA towards new recently founded national and regional associations.
As per ISIA Statutes, only one Association per Member country is entitled to represent their Nation and to be Member in ISIA.
The Member for Canada is currently CSIA. No other Canadian association (f.i. PSIC), as per statutes, is going to be recognised by ISIA, nor their qualifications are going to obtain ISIA recognition.
ISIA Statutes do not allow regional Membership: regional Associations (f.i. PSIE) will not be recognised by ISIA nor their qualifications are going to obtain ISIA recognition.
For further information, please refer to the ISIA By-laws (§ 5 Membership and Annulment of Membership and § 7 Cessation of Membership).
