Global Adventures Leader Training

This training, required for anyone who seeks to certify as a leader of Mountaineers Global Adventures, consists of a required evening workshop on zoom and a required full-day workshop in person at the Seattle Program Center. The evening workshop will cover all of the specific requirements, processes and forms to propose and run a Global ADventure, and the weekend workshop will give participants practice in essential communication, planning and group leadership 'soft skills' relevant to an extended group adventure.

Global Adventures are multi-day Mountaineers activities within North America and around the world where experienced Mountaineers volunteer leaders arrange trip logistics from start to end and participants pay a member fee to cover all trip expenses.  Leaders of Global Adventures must be certified by a Mountaineers activity committee that oversees the primary activity on the trip, and generally is expected to have considerable experience with multi-day trip planning, logistics and group leadership with the Mountaineers or with another organization.
