About the event
This workshop is aimed at anyone who is working towards or has completed one of the Mountain Training walking awards and is looking to develop their teaching skills.
You will also be accredited with the “NNAS Tutor Award." To be a course director of NNAS Navigator awards you must be working for a registered course provider, have done the Tutor Award and hold one of the outdoor qualifications accepted by NNAS.
For those without a higher hill or mountain walking qualification, but with experience and interest in the outdoors, they may be authorised to help teach on a Bronze award under the guidance of a registered NNAS Course Director. They are called Bronze Tutors.Â
Undertaking the Tutor Award does not automatically mean a person is a Bronze Tutor. An application must be made to the NNAS office by the Course Director wishing to utilise the person on their Bronze Navigator courses.Bronze Tutors must be under supervision by a Course Director at all times.
The course is a mixture of indoor and outdoor practical sessions and offers the opportunity for candidates to discuss their own methodology as well as learning new techniques from others.
This Workshop will also credit you with 1 CPD point for full members of AMI, BAIML & MTA.
