Lake Louise Ski Resort located in Banff is one of Canada's largest resorts. Voted the top Ski Resort in Canada at the 2019 World Ski Awards, Lake Louise consistently ranks among the world's best ski resorts. Other notable titles include 'Best Steeps,' 'Best Scenery', 'Best Terrain Park' and 'Best New Off-Piste Tour.'
Boasting 4,200 acres of ski area, this world-class resort is perfect for beginner to intermediate skiers. Lake Louise is Banff's largest ski resort and offers a variety of terrain and skiing to suit all abilities.
EA Ski & Snowboard are proud to partner with Lake Louise Ski Resort to provide instructor internships at this beautiful place.
You will quickly become one of the locals and enjoy ‘mates rates’, ‘mean hookups’ and a lot of fun. People are often keen to know how much it costs to buy food so here’s our shopping list rundown:
On your day's off, you'll find yourself heading to other resorts such as Mt Norquay, Banff and Sunshine Village. You can expect work at Lake Louise to be busy during the holiday periods, while the quieter parts of the season are taken up with a mix of part time work and training towards your level 2.
Accommodation during our 4 – 11-week training course at Lake Louise is typically located at the Banff International Hostel. This is a hostel-style lodge in a fantastic location right in the heart of the township of Banff. All of the facilities Banff has to offer are literally on your doorstep! Choose from the amazing selection of bars, restaurants, nightclubs, cinema, gym, the list goes on...
Rates and locations may vary from time to time, and if they do we will endeavour to let you know at the earliest opportunity.
Accommodation for those on an EA Internship Program is organised at the 'The Stables' Staff Housing. The accommodation is used by Lake Louise Resort staff as well as Fairmont Chateau staff. This is very affordable accommodation with everything you need including spacious rooms, an awesome atmosphere and an onsite bar! Here are a few quick details:
Note: For those on our Internship Programs, EA covers the cost of your accommodation for the duration of the level one program. Once employed you will be able to stay on for the remainder of the season with payments deducted from your pay. On arrival, you will be required to pay a bond of approximately CA $200. You will also need to bring or purchase on arrival bedding, towels plus some basic cooking and eating utensils.
EA want you to have the best season possible this winter. We have two program managers who oversee the running of our instructor courses who are easily contactable and there to offer advice and support at all times. Not only are they familiar with Lake Louise itself, but they also work for the ski school and will be a familiar face to make your gap year and first winter season that much easier.
Our Internships and instructor courses allow you to obtain a globally recognised qualification with either the CSIA (Ski) or CASI (Snowboard).
Both the CISA and CASI have internationally recognised ski associations and are the governing bodies for ski/snowboard instructor qualifications in Canada. CASI and CSIA teaching qualifications are highly regarded in the industry and a qualification with the Canadian system will build your technical understanding and allow you to effectively instruct skiing or snowboarding.
Remember that if you are taking a plus internship, the level 2 course fees are not included as not everyone chooses to sit these.
