Wilderness and Adventure Leadership Training Courses

Learn to master valuable outdoor skills and yourself on one of our Wilderness and Adventure Leadership training courses

While no one list of qualities can exactly define what it is that makes a good leader, most people tend to agree that skills, knowledge, and experience — coupled with integrity and passion — is close to the mark.

When you choose an Adventure Collection leadership-training course, you’ll learn from some of the most highly rated outdoor educators in the world. They’ll help you gain the skills that will support you in your profession. Best of all, you’ll learn them in the natural settings you’re passionate about — building your credibility as an outdoor leader.

In Alaska, for example, you’ll become a seasoned wilderness traveler while learning how to read a map, navigate off trail, and scan the horizon for black bears, Dall sheep, grizzly bears, moose, and wolves. In Washington’s North Cascades, you can get an unparalleled outdoor education by perfecting snow-, ice-, and crevasse-rescue mountaineering skills.

Or hone your fly-fishing cast, ford high mountain rivers, practice GPS and compass navigation, and learn how to camp and travel in bear country in Wyoming’s Absaroka Range, while traveling through broad river valleys surrounded by sheer glacier-carved cliffs. In Baja, learn coastal navigation on waters rich with marine life, from intricate sea fans to raucous sea lions. Or trek through the Sherpa valleys and villages of Khumbu in Nepal to a peak beneath the two-mile-high wall of Lhotse, next to Everest, with an accomplished mountaineer, scholar, and world authority on mountains as sources of inspiration and meaning as your guide and teacher.

As someone who’s committed to becoming an outdoor leader, you probably already rank high in integrity. Let Adventure Collection help you build your skills, knowledge, and experience so you can spend your life doing what you’re passionate about: sharing the outdoors with others.
