Being able to operate safely in the outdoors is just one part of the requirements of a good outdoor professional. Just as important is the ability to coach and look after other people whilst participating in outdoor pursuits. During the course we will be teaching group management and leadership skills. It is important that outdoor instructors have an awareness of how confidence, motivation and self esteem can impact on a person's ability to learn and participate in group activities. During the programme we will be reviewing your activities and your progress; by using a range of reviewing tools you will also be developing these skills so you have the confidence and understanding of this subject by the end of the course.
