Become a Ski Instructor in Japan, with Training and Job

EA run a well organised and planned program to get people into the industry. They adapt to the snow conditions to provide the best experience possible. All trainers were very knowledgeable and helpful in the process of training and examination.

EA contracted everything out to ski instructors on the ground. These instructors (who also had their own businesses to manage) were unable to effectively manage a very variable situation on the ground (lack of snow etc). I believe this is due to a lack of support from EA. Training itself (which the instructors were actually trained in) was very effective and good fun. Accommodation was variable; some had good beds (with storage etc), others did not. A day for looking over equipment was promised but not provided. Overall I would say it was a good experience but could easily have been provided for far less.

I had a great time training in Karuizawa with loads of people whom I now call friends. The trainer was amazing and is the best skier I’ve seen. The list of issues is short and consists of one entry: ‘The hostel wasn’t great’; it wasn’t awful it’s just not worth the compulsory fee

Embarking on the EA Ski internship journey is nothing short of exhilarating! The program doesn't just teach skiing; it immerses you in a world of snowy slopes and alpine adventures. While the occasional challenge may arise, like navigating tricky terrains, they're overshadowed by the thrill of honing your skills on the slopes. Beyond the training, landing a job post-internship feels like conquering a mountain you've been ascending for months. The sense of accomplishment and the prospect of contributing to exciting ski projects make the EA Ski internship a launchpad for an exhilarating career in the world of snow sports.
