Just call the mountain, and select the snowsports school option. Quickest, and easiest way to get your answer.

High Peaks Cycle gives free lessons during the tele demo day. The best way to learn is to ride your bike 2000 miles for the year, do about 100 lunges per day, get your gear and have at it. I did not recieve instruction. I picked it up on my own thru T&E. Now I can ski the whole Mt. on tele gear and not look bad at it. I feel the key is conditioning if you're a competent alpiner.
