Vocational Training
The quality of the vocational training in South Tyrol is of international standard and highly recognised. The vocational training requires three years and the demanding courses are held by experienced instructors.
To take part in the training, a curriculum of tours in all disciplines of mountaineering is required as well as the successful participation of an examination. For more details about the vocational training read: Become a mountain guide.
Continuation Training
To keep their licence valid, mountain guides in South Tyrol are required to attend continuation training courses of at least 3 days every 3 years. It is our goal to offer a varied programme and to focus on motivation to promote compliance – a strategy that has proven to be very successful.
Indeed, many of our guides attend more days of continuation training than is required. A good reason might be the constant update on the latest developments in the alpine professions as well as great local and international experts leading the seminars.
