Assessment

Award Description

This award trains and assesses candidates in the skills required to supervise climbers on single pitch crags and climbing walls. Common activities undertaken by an SPA holder will be roped climbing and bouldering. The SPA does not include the skills and techniques required to teach lead climbing.

Single Pitch Award assessment course details Note: Climb365 will pay the climbing wall entry fee. Our Single Pitch Award assessment courses are another opportunity for you to learn. Whilst assessing, we are always chatting through ideas and offering tips to help you improve. We are looking for good, sound, safe instructors. We are looking for people to be at the SPA standard or above and with an open mind to learning. As assessors, we are also continually learning and even though we have been fully qualified MIC instructors for many years we are still open to new ideas. So an ideal assessment goes something like this: You are showing us that you meet the single pitch award requirements and are climbing well. We will endeavour to give you ideas to think through, move you on and hope that you come out of the assessment process with more ideas, a greater breadth of experience and feel encouraged to continue learning and maybe go onto the Summer Mountain Leader, or other Mountain Training courses awards. So what happens if things don’t go quite as planned? We really understand assessment stress. People react differently to being assessed. We try and find what works for you and seek after your best performance. In practical terms, this means that we try and coach and give you as many opportunities to see that you have the understanding of what’s required.
