The PITC is ideal for anyone at entry or development level who wants to improve their
skills in outdoor pursuits.
By participating in the course you will enhance your career as an outdoor instructor
by gaining a broad base of technical skills, outdoor activity experience and nationally
and internationally recognised qualifications.
You do not need to have previous experience in any of the activities as we include
the necessary training days that are a pre-requisite for many of the qualifications.
Any experience you do have is always valuable and will let you get even more out
of the course.
You will need a good base level of fitness, a passion for the outdoors and the commitment
and willingness to venture into the outdoors every day, whatever the weather.
In addition to the practical coaching you will receive during the course, one of
the teaching team will become your coaching mentor. You will have 1:1 time with your
mentor to discuss your progress, identify both your strengths and the areas you need
to work on. Your mentor will also be able to give you advice about looking for work
in the industry and what your options are.
