Instructor Training Course 2007

If you are looking for that start in the outdoor activity industry then MWE has the perfect training course that will enable you to gain a grounding in a number of adventurous activities, as well as gain valuable experience, confidence and, where possible, qualifications.

The main and underlying aim of the MWE Outdoor Instructor Training Course (ITC) is to train the Activity Instructors of the future to a high and achievable standard.

The MWE Outdoor Instructor Training course has been designed and developed to ensure that trainees leave with the confidence to go out into the industry and find employment with the knowledge and experience necessary to make a good start within the outdoor industry.

Over the six week period instructors and coaches will cover an array of topics based around a core number of adventurous activities.

The course works on a modular basis, so that trainees can build up skills without interruption over a five day period.

Rather than doing the entire six weeks, we can also offer weekly modules (subject to availability), please contact the office for details.

Over the six week period of the course there will be the opportunity for trainees to gain a number of qualifications in a range of activities. With the right level of motivation and dedication trainees could leave the course with the following:

If trainees have the right level of experience and pre-requisites then further courses, such as BCU Level 1 or 2 coach training and SPA training courses, can be made available.

Due to the nature of the course trainees can undertake any individual weeks on a modular basis. Please enquire with the MWE office for details.

The MWE ITC is directed by Mark Agnew, who, with over 10 years experience in running an outdoor activity company and with a hands on approach, is in a unique position to pass on his experiences. Other staff members include a dedicated group of instructors and coaches who not only work in the outdoors, but play there as well. All of the staff are chosen not just for their coaching abilities, but also for their enthusiasm and dedication to passing on their knowledge.
