“Pro courses” are designed for avalanche professionals either employed or seeking employment in the avalanche industry.

Applicants are screened to make sure they meet prior learning and employment guidelines. Throughout the course students are evaluated and tested on knowledge, skills, and abilities- which requires rigorous study, completion of assignments, and both written and practical testing.

Alaska Avalanche School is a professional course provider recognized by the American Avalanche Association (A3).  For more information about the oversight and administration of professional training in the United States, click here.
