During our time together we’ll explore the connection between "soft skills" and "hard skills” along the adventure learning spectrum - from recreational experience to experiential education to adventure therapy and counselling outdoors.
We will try to gain a deeper awareness of how your soft skills can improve your provision. This is something we regard as essential for practitioners keen to bring maximum value to their own work and to their students’ experience.
This workshop is designed for practicing and aspirant outdoor instructors and other professionals, such as youth workers, social workers, teachers, working with youth in the outdoors.
