@ed48, go to the Tirol Ski Instructor Association site and see when they are holding their next course. Before you commit though get a local ski school to assess your skiing to see if you are up to the required standard.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@clarky999, as a foreigner you have to be sponsored by a ski school (I think it is restricted to Salzburgerland but I'm not sure) so you cannot just rock up and apply. This is because the courses are heavily subsidised by the provincial government. In the Tirol you do not have this restriction.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Thanks guys, Ive been meditating on this list while ago and been surprised no cources in my valley. Looks like Alpbach is closest to me, will be looking what we have there.
Cheers Ed

Not many courses tbh, its looks like they do most of them in December.
What they mean by 'Teil I'? Is there two parts?

@ed48, there isn't a part II for the Anwaerter but for a 'Schisportsleher' you need a second discipline so it may be referring to this (although the Landes courses are listed with Anwaerter on the second discipline... so i'm a bit confused!)...
Anwaerter is just one course.

The 'Teil I' just means that it is the first step towards Landes I think (judging by what my certificates say).
But further away from you but worth looking at available dates are the courses run by Snowsports Academy (Wiener Verband) in Kaprun.

That makes sence, thanks guys!
I wonder if anyone could give an advice, where is best place to learn for absolute beginner (my girlfriend). The closest place (and also cheapest) will be Fugen-Spieljoch. Then HochFugen, then Mayrhofen, Zillertal arena and Hintertux. I guess the question which resort is more beginner friendly, also since its beginning of January, the snow conditions is something to take into account.
thanks

Alpbach for beginners

snowHeads are a friendly bunch.

@ed48, If enough snow comes for Spieljoch to open, the beginner area at the top of the gondola is good and it will be quiet.
If you come during the quiet January weeks, Kaltenbach has perfect beginner terrain, but it can be busy.
