Chart Your Career Course in Nature’s Untamed Beauty

Nestled in between coastal mountains, incredible fjords and the inside passage – Glacier Bay is a remote wilderness experience you don’t want to miss. On top of learning or further developing your hospitality skills in one of the most beautiful places in the world; recreation and sightseeing opportunities are endless.

3.3 million acres of mountains, glaciers, fjords, rainforest, and wildlife fill the environment of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve – a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The only way to travel to us is by air or sea from Juneau to the friendly little town of Gustavus, your Gateway to Glacier Bay. However, once you arrive, every experience will be awe-inspiring.
