Sierra Club NYCICO's Outdoor Leadership Training

Outdoor Leadership Training (OLT) is a requirement to becoming a trip leader for Sierra Club NYCICO, but also a great training opportunity for any volunteer interested in becoming better in group settings in the outdoors and also sharing valuable experience. If you are a NYCICO certified leader and haven't taken OLT since 2021 then you are required to recertify. This training is FREE!

Volunteers must complete 2/3 of the training modules online at their own pace prior to March 15, 2025 when we have the in person section at In-Tech Academy's Library at 2975 Tibbett Avenue Bronx, NY 10463.

This training trip fulfills the ICO Certified Leader requirement for Outdoor Leader Training, by incorporating theory and hands-on skill sessions in the following areas, and more!:

-- Working with Youth

-- Our Commitment to Equity Goals

-- Planning and Conducting a Trip

-- Games!

-- Connecting with Conservation and the Environment

-- Incident Management

If you are not currently a Sierra Club member, w hen signing up for this training, you will receive choices of dates to meet for a virtual New Volunteer orientation and receive information on how to become a Sierra Club member (in order to be able to complete the online modules).

What better way to meet other great ICO volunteers and improve your leadership skills?
