The Course

The mountains of the Austrian Tyrol have some of the finest skiing and snowboarding in the world. Peak Leaders have teamed up with the Arlberg Ski School in St Anton to deliver a 4 week, pre-Christmas course taking you to Austrian Ski Instructor level 1 (Anwarter).

There are possible work opportunities in St Anton after the course if you want to work as an Austrian Ski Instructor.  Each year the Ski Schule Arlberg have employed some Peak Leaders trainees during busy weeks.  You will need to have a good knowledge of German for certain parts of the course.  You will also take part in our German lessons during the course.  It will be important that you can speak German if you want to work as an instructor in St Anton.
