Aspiring Alpine Guides
They were anciently called "carriers" as they did nothing but carrying, literally and on their back, the luggage or the equipment of the Alpine Guide's customer. Today things have changed, the Aspiring Alpine Guide remains a trainee, an apprentice of the job, but enjoys remarkable organizational and management autonomy. The current training paths allow the Aspiring Guides to learn the basics and the fundamental techniques for guaranteeing maximum safety to their customers. After a compulsory two-year apprenticeship, the Aspiring Guide can access the training courses for Alpine Guide-Ski touring instructor.
The Alpine Guide/Ski touring instructor is nationally and internationally recognized as the only competent professional figure able to guarantee a correct frequenting of the mountain environment.

accompany, teach and let people know the mountains in their various aspects.
