WORKSHOP CONTENT & LEARNING OUTCOMES

As ML (Summer) Assessment season approaches, join us for a peer-led Navigation session starting from Elterwater before ascending Silver Howe and the surrounding area. 

The session will be an excellent way to practice your navigation skills through a 'mock assessment' approach.

This will also be a fantastic opportunity for learning and discussion, to help share knowledge, and build confidence in a safe, relaxed environment under the guidance of Paul Cannon (ML Summer qualification holder and fellow member of the Cumbria Regional MTA Members Group), who has over a decade of experience working in the industry. 

Outcomes:

  1. Meet up and connect with other Lake District based MTA members. 
  2. Practice and hone your Navigation skills. 
  3. Share knowledge and experience with others. 
  4. Acquire new knowledge from peers. 

Please note: this is a peer-led event and all attendees are responsible for their own safety and should behave responsibly at all times.
