Landmark's interactive courses are designed to serve the Camping and Outdoor Recreation industry as a resource for staff development. Instructor Development courses are primarily hosted by sponsoring organizations for their staff, allowing for personalization of each course offering. Sponsor organizations can also choose to open their courses to outside parties. With the boom in outdoor recreation and programs developed to introduce the public to the outdoors, it is more essential than ever before to properly train outdoor leaders in the philosophy and techniques that are national standards in our industry.
Education is the key to conserving and sustaining our wilderness resources for the years to come.
Landmark courses focus on enhancing a sense of stewardship to our natural resources. This unique offering encourages and promotes staff cohesion while introducing participants to your program's purpose and goals. The workshop covers such issues as conflict resolution, leadership styles and their application, and planning and organizing. These core skills help staff by improving support in each others' roles, and also arm them with tools that will assist them in working effectively with their groups. This 9-day course, recognized by numerous universities in North Carolina for college credit, is designed to meet the special needs of wilderness trip leaders.
