ACCREDITED TRAINING IN OUTDOOR EDUCATION
Join us in the woods and become a qualified environmental education instructor! Our course offers a more accessible and cost-effective alternative to traditional Forest School training, giving you all the skills and knowledge you need to lead groups in the great outdoors.
Woodland Activity Leader Training (WALT) is accredited through the NCFE with a Level 2 qualification. You will learn the essential outdoor skills needed to lead your own exciting outdoor education sessions for all ages and abilities. WALT empowers you to deliver inspiring environmental education, tailored to the needs of your students, patients or clients.
Our WALT training programme uses a combination of online learning, for the theoretical modules (Part 1) which you can study in your own time, and in-person outdoor workshops for the practical modules (Part 2). The in-person training takes place over just 3 days. Get certified to teach in nature. Start your adventure in outdoor education today.
Our course is all set against the backdrop of mixed woodlands, wetlands and open meadows of Park In The Past, with 120 acres of wild space to explore.
