Want an apprenticeship that can bring you both fun and a successful career? Swiss ski lift companies have just the thing for you.
The Swiss Ski Lifts Training Centre has just launched the “Call of Heroes” campaign. It’s a call for young people to come and discover the ski lift industry. Most industries are now being impacted by demographic change, and the ski lift industry is no exception – many technical experts will be retiring in the next few years.
Our discovery days are a chance for young people to find out what it takes to be an apprentice ski lift mechanic or apprentice ski lift employee. In short, it’s all about how to become an Alpine Tech Hero!
On 18 and 22 March 2024, young people aged 13 and over will have the opportunity to experience the world of ski lifts first-hand at various ski lift companies in Switzerland.
These taster days are free of charge and open to anyone who is interested and meets the age requirements. You can sign up with the company of your choice.
The Swiss Ski Lifts Training Centre is also running a national competition, open to those aged 13 to 25. You could win day passes for skiing in the Verbier 4Vallées ski resort!
