Using ground-level ropes and other portable props, workshop guides tailor each course to the established goals of a participating group. With assistance from the guides, participants choose the type and degree of challenge they'll face. Participants rave about how enriching the workshop experience is. For many it's an opportunity with lifelong impact. Trained Purdue University staff and students guide and facilitate Boiler Challenge groups and activities.
All guides receive extensive on-going training.
They are committed to a safe, fulfilling program for each participant. The workshops attract student groups, classes, faculty members, administrative teams, and off-campus businesses and groups. Many student organizations have taken the Boiler Challenge, and several professors have laid the groundwork for an especially rewarding class through this unique learning experience. The Boiler Challenge is portable. Any number of places on and off campus are appropriate learning locations.
