For the coming winter season Altitude Futures will be running many courses in Verbier, Whistler and Tignes.

Verbier courses for ski instructors are 10 weeks commencing on the 28th November 2010, the 9th January 2011 and the 6th February 2011. Snowboard courses are also 10 weeks and commence on the 9th January 2011. Due to our success over the last few seasons Altitude is now considered by experts in the snowsports industry to be officially the most highly regarded Ski School Gap Program in Verbier.

If you are looking to qualify before the start of the season then our pre season Gap Course inTignes would be a great opportunity to get qualified and then head out and work during the winter.  This 9 week course starts on the 25th September.

 

Whistler starting date is to be confirmed..

'The best group I’ve had with regard to them being prepared ready for this level 2 course.'
