We prefer to send two instructors to every course. The preferred maximum number of students per course is 30. We have found that overall course quality decreases significantly above 30 students. The deposit varies slightly with each course. It is priced to cover instructor transportation and fifty percent of the minimum course fee.
Payment is due within ten days of the cancelation.
Unless you can fill a course with staff from your organization it will be necessary for you to advertize locally, and perhaps regionally. Many have seasonal or new guides who are looking for a course. Climbing, paddling, and hiking clubs are another source of potential students. You may also wish to contact your local radio station, TV station, and newspaper. They may be willing to list your course as a public service announcement.
