There is no formal face to face training component in this scheme. Instead, Mountain Training has developed an optional online training resource to help candidates familiarise themselves with the Camping Leader syllabus and associated competencies prior to attending assessment. A link to access the training (hosted on teachable.com) will be sent when you register on the scheme.

The online training course covers all elements of the syllabus using a variety of formats such as presentations, videos and quizzes to aid learning. The course will take approximately 4 hours to complete if you engage with the content in all sections. You may revisit the online training course as often as you wish in advance of your assessment course.

The online training also provides you with an outline of how your assessment course will be delivered and ideas for how you might consolidate your learning.

Before you book onto a Camping Leader assessment course, make sure you have done the following:

• You must be at least 18 years old
• You must have personally undertaken and logged an absolute minimum of five overnight camps, ideally in a variety of contexts.
• You must have assisted with or overseen at least two group camps. If personal camping has only been undertaken when also supervising a group, then these two group camps can be part of the total submitted for personal camping i.e. some candidates may need to log only five overnight camps in total. Reflective comments must accompany the group supervision evidence.
• You must be familiar with the syllabus.
• You must be an experienced self-sufficient camper.
• You must have experience of the supervision of camping groups.
• You must have physically attended and completed (i.e. not online) a first aid course which involved at least one full day or eight hours of instruction and included an element of assessment

The Camping Leader assessment takes place over the course of a day or a number of sessions building up to a minimum eight hours contact time.

This is not a residential course.
