Assessment

The Camping Leader qualification is for people who wish to supervise camping groups and develop participant’s camping proficiency by teaching campcraft activities. It is ideal for people who work within schools and youth groups, and who are involved in the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.

This qualification complements the Lowland Leader and Hill and Moorland Leader qualification. A Camping Leader can operate in a variety of campsites from commercial locations to simple fields with limited facilities.

This course is an 8-hour practical assessment of pre-existing knowledge and skill. The training for this course is delivered online by Mountain Training in an eLearning module.

Personally

I am an experienced outdoor practitioner with over 20 years’ experience in providing training and development in various outdoor pursuits. I believe in enabling instructors to promote the outdoors to the next generation. I care about providing training and assessment opportunities which are of a practical nature, where learning and development of knowledge and skills are at the core of every course I deliver. Everyone is an individual and is involved in their own journey as an outdoor instructor - I recognise this and tailor courses to ensure I am able to support you on this learning pathway.
