Description:
Cornwall Outdoors has been delivering outdoor training courses for over 30 years covering activities such as climbing, mountaineering, sailing, kayaking, canoeing and mountain biking. Each year we train the next wave of instructors to provide our service as well as the wider outdoor industry.
This has to be the best opportunity ever !!
We have on our staff team a range of highly qualified coaches and instructors who have been working in the outdoor industry for many years with all kinds of client groups including young people, the military, the youth service and corporate clients. We are therefore very attuned to the needs of employers and can give sound advice on career progression to course delegates.
We are also able to offer employment opportunities to those with suitable qualifications and experience.
We are uniquely placed to offer a range of courses and take full advantage of the fantastic coastline, rivers, crags and moors within Cornwall and West Devon to deliver the main content of our courses. For the specialist mountain work we travel to our Celtic cousins in Wales, particularly Snowdonia and the Brecon Beacons.
Sign up for one of our courses and you get a professional service delivered by friendly, experienced and highly motivated staff with a passion for the outdoors.
All courses will focus on developing your personal skills enabling you to progress onto coaching and leadership awards, validated by the various national governing bodies and the County Council as well as providing opportunities to gain invaluable first-hand experience with groups.
