Although most of the events had been contested at the regional level since the mid-19th century, the first internationally organized skiing championships did not take place until 1924. From 1924 to 1931 only Nordic competition was involved; Alpine championship events were added to world competition in 1931 and to the Olympics in 1936. Except in Olympic years, the Nordic and Alpine championships are held separately and at different locations. Events include cross-country races, ski jumping, biathlon, and relay races (Nordic) and downhill and slalom skiing (Alpine). Since 1967, an Alpine World Cup has been presented to the competitor with the best combined downhill, slalom, giant slalom, and supergiant slalom (super-G) performance over a series of major contests. A Nordic World Cup for cross-country events has been awarded since 1979.

1Olympic champions, recognized as world champions. 2From 1991 to 1999, the 10-km event was held in tandem with the 15-km event; one event featured classical and the other freestyle technique. Medals were awarded for both races. Beginning in 2001 this pursuit race (skiers competing directly against each other rather than against the clock) led to one medal being awarded upon winning. The 10-km was discontinued, and the 15-km became a stand-alone event featuring classical technique. In 2001-03 the pursuit race featured two 10-km races; since then, two 15-km races. 318-km cross-country until 1952; 15-km in 1954 and thereafter. 4Military relay until 1939;40-km relay in 1948 and thereafter.

1Olympic champions, recognized as world champions. 2From 1991 to 1999, the 5-km event was held in tandem with the 10-km event; one event featured classical and the other freestyle technique. Medals were awarded for both races. Beginning in 2001 this pursuit race (skiers competing directly against each other rather than against the clock) led to one medal being awarded upon winning. The 5-km was discontinued, and the 10-km became a stand-alone event featuring classical technique. In 2001-03 the pursuit race featured two 5-km races; since then, two 7.5-km races. 3Unified Team, consisting of athletes from the Commonwealth of Independent States plus Georgia. 415-km relay until 1974; 20-km in 1976 and thereafter.
