Trip leaders are students who have completed our Outdoor Adventure Leadership Program and acquired the necessary experience to guide the trips they have been assigned. For each trip, a mandatory pre-trip meeting provides important information to participants. Drug and alcohol policy Alcohol and controlled substances are not permitted on any trips sponsored by the VCU Outdoor Adventure Program. Sign up for the Adventure Skills Practicum, a training program that includes workshops and wilderness experiences. In addition to the activities, training includes first aid, wilderness medicine, outdoor leadership, trip planning, group facilitation, hazard assessment, team building, ethics and more.
