Join us on Dartmoor for your Rock Climbing Instructor course.  An amazing variety of single pitch climbing, high-quality climbing walls and near-by outdoor climbing make this the perfect place to learn how to become an instructor. 

 

Training - Over three days we will explore the full syllabus of the Rock Climbing Instructor Scheme using great venues, teaching, discussions and practice to ensure you have every opportunity to take as much from the course as possible.  You can expect plenty of hands on guided learning which builds on your previous experience and adds to your toolbox of skills, knowledge and abilities; setting you up perfectly for the next stage of the scheme.   Come prepared to take notes, video and/or photos in all weathers to ensure you get the best from the course.

Assessment - This Course assesses candidates in line with the Rock Climbing Instructor syllabus.  Candidates must have attended a training course or been granted exemption.  Candidates should ensure they have recorded their climbing and supervision experience on DLOG including the minimum prerequisites as laid out in the scheme handbook.  We always aim to provide a constructive and relaxed assessment environment which allows you to perform to your best; including plenty of practical tasks and scenarios, questioning and a home research paper.  

On booking you will be sent full pre-course information including joining instructions and useful preparatory reading material.
