Mentoring
Are you working towards a Mountain Training qualification? If so, I can help you get there. I have extensive experience working in the industry and can offer you guidance on what you need to do to become a better leader or instructor.
I will personlise things to help you achieve your goals. We need to meet to discuss your requirements and can take it from there.
N.B - I do not mentor MCI candiates as I feel this conflicts with my role regularly directing assessment courses.
MCI prep
I can support you with your development through your consolidation period.
I can support your action plan with further training in areas, provide feedback on your current level of performance and answer any of those questions that arise on the journey to assessment. With extensive expereince of training and assessing MCI candidates I am well placed to support you in your journey moving forwards.
Get in contact to discuss dates.
