The
Mountain Training Association provides continued support and development opportunities for Mountain Training candidates who have registered for an
award scheme. Members are either working towards a Mountain Training award or already hold qualifications and are actively working in the outdoors, so when you join you can be at any stage in your qualification journey; just registered, completed a training course or using your award/s for outdoor work.
Members come from a wide variety of backgrounds; some work full time in the outdoors as freelance professionals or run their own business, others work in full time education, outdoor centres or climbing walls as managers or staff. Many are involved in DofE and volunteer with schools, Girl Guides and Scouts and some seek the qualifications for personal competence. Members are either working towards a Mountain Training award (trainee members) or already hold qualifications and are actively working in the outdoors (full members).
Full members of the Mountain Training Association hold one or more of Mountain Trainings' nationally recognised qualifications having completed training, consolidation and assessment.
They are passionate about the activities they provide and are committed to continued personal development (CPD) demonstrating the benefits of ongoing experience and enhanced skills, so not only are they qualified, they also have the support to stay up to date with good practice.
