OUR TRAINING AND ACCREDITATION
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Our resources and training have been developed and produced exclusively by our Directors over the past 10 years, with input from fellow professionals. We have now worked on a number of projects relating to the design, implementation, training and accreditation for challenge activities and larger scale outdoor learning facilities and tasks. Work to date includes:
CREATIVE
Design of high quality, robust and innovative activities to be used for personal and team development with a focus on outreach and mobility. We continually adapt and develop to meet customer needs
CURRENT
Gathering, collating and acting on input of subject specialists and lead trainers with extensive teaching, military instruction, personal training and leadership experience.
CREDIBLE
Undertaking a thorough process to achieve Continuing Professional Development (CPD) approved training and certification through the Institute for Outdoor Learning (IOL)
CO-OPERATIVE
Continued partnership work and consultation with like-minded Youth Organisations, National Governing Bodies, Leisure Trusts, Local Authorities and other purpose-driven organisations.
STAFF ACCREDITED TRAINING
The 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. Trainees will be assessed throughout the process and will then be qualified to facilitate activities from the resource.
LEARNER ACCREDITED TRAINING
We have also developed a qualification for learners. ‘Personal Potential’ is a Level 1 qualification enabling learners to recognise when and how ‘stretch and challenge’ occurs, this is when learning happens. Linked to the AQR MTQ48 measure we can develop the socio- emotional awareness that builds up Mental Toughness and Learning Intelligence.
