About

Trainee workshops are designed to support your journey towards becoming a professional Mountaineering and Climbing Instructor. They are an opportunity to build on your technical skills and develop your decision making post MCI training.

The aim of the workshops is to support your learning and understanding of the different techniques and principles that underpin safe practise as a Mountaineering and Climbing Instructor. The focus will be on the why’s, rather than the what in your practise. You will leave the day with a clearer picture of your future development needs and how to meet them, the day is not a form of mock assessment. 

This day will provide trainees with the opportunity to practise the skills and techniques of safely managing people in varied terrain. We will run the day in a workshop style covering key areas of people management in mountaineering terrain. As we are not in a mountainous area the day will be more focused on the techniques for managing clients rather than the decisions that are being made about the terrain. We will look at having tidy chest coils, hand swaps for hand coils and keeping the rope snug, bringing two people into a tight stance, use of hand over hand, body belays, and descents. It is an opportunity to get some expert input to help you develop and understand the skills you learnt on training. 

This workshop will be delivered by Kath James


Students should bring: 50m single rope, Scrambling rack, personal climbing equipment and suitable mountain boots.
