Teaching other youth how to enjoy the outdoors is rewarding for the lucky mentees and their mentors. But while you may be able to paddle Class V rapids, make an all-day climb of a snow-capped peak and spend a full week in the wilderness backpacking, imagine leading a group of teenagers on a local day hike...

Do your mentees have the skills needed for the outing? How can they get the most out of their experience? How can you be the best leader possible?

With the online resource for Outdoor Leadership, we'll turn you - the outdoor enthusiast - into an outdoor leader. First, we'll get you prepped for your outing. Then, we'll give you teaching tips, offer up some activity ideas and share stories (and mistakes!) from the field.

Courses include leadership training in paddling, climbing, hiking, orienteering, camping and biking.

Ok, now get on with it and earn that degree! Check out the Outdoor Leadership courses!
