    This course is designed for avalanche workers early in their careers, or for experienced workers wanting to stay current with industry standards. The focus of this course is to prepare students to be contributing members of a risk management team by developing observational skills, as well as communication and rescue skills. During this course, we will focus on developing systems for planning and executing a route, as well as for evaluating snow stability. The goal of this course is to help students become skilled observers who will contribute to a professional team. Prior to enrollment in the course, students must show Level 1 Avalanche and Rescue Fundamentals certifications and provide documentation of a minimum of 20 days of prior avalanche work experience. Students must be proficient traveling in the backcountry and downhill skiing in variable conditions in avalanche terrain on skis or snowboard in a winter environment.
