Program options
We offer a range of different Ski instructor training course options from 4 to 11 weeks to suit your timeframe, training and winter season goals. Our 4 - week ski instructor course prioritizes skill improvement and the level 1 ski instructor qualification. Participants find themselves improving their skiing over 3 weeks of intensive practical training and then 1 week of an examination. The longer Ski instructor course includes more weeks on snow and as a result, more time and instruction for improvement. There are also further qualifications included such as first-aid, avalanche safety and also the level 2 ski instructors qualification.
