EMPOWERING PROFESSIONALS

Your skill as a facilitator will bring it aliveThe training course ‘Facilitation Skills for Experiential Learning’ focuses on how to pitch and shape the learning to achieve desired outcomes. Practical, engaging and fun – this 6hr course is certified CPD by the Institute for Outdoor Learning and delivered by our highly experienced team. Trainees will be assessed throughout the process and will then be qualified to facilitate activities from the resource.

If you are adding to your existing Challenge Kit and have already received training to facilitate effectively then we can sell additional bags at £1.25k per unit. Some customers choose to add multiple Bags of Character once trained – if this is the case then please talk to us about the best solutions for you. We also run open training courses at our own outdoor learning centre.
