Ski Instructor Course in Hintertux

One day before the practical exams, all important points are discussed so that you can get started in the best possible way.

Ski training
It is important to start training fit and healthy. For this purpose, you can follow a two-day ski training course in Austria. If you haven’t been on skis for a while, we advise you to go to the training in Austria. During the ski training, you learn what the exact parts are that you will be judged on during the practical exams. And of course, it is nice to get to know your fellow course members in advance!
German language course for ski instructors
The Landes courses are official Austrian vocational training courses and are taught in German. Introducing yourself and some small talk is the basis of what you should be able to do. If you are not good at this yet, we recommend taking an online German course and then ordering the special German ski instructor course. This is mainly aimed at the Anwärter material but is also useful for experienced ski instructors.
