Designed for our current and future volunteer trip leaders, with a goal of fostering diverse and passionate connections throughout The Mountaineers. This course is for current or aspiring volunteers who are proficient in one or more one or more outdoor activities, but are interested in learning more about leading in the outdoors.

The Foundations of Leadership track is intended to share the foundational principles of leadership that we think are most important for our volunteers. This course provides a practical overview of leadership concepts and definitions with real-life applications. 

At the end of this track, you will be able to understand how to mitigate risks, set-up the groups you lead for success, foster an inclusive environment for your trip, and more. If you don't yet have experience with outdoor leadership, this track is a great place to start!
