This module will have a strong focus on acquiring the basic practical skills associated with safe, land-based, adventure activities. Practical activity will be augmented by short classroom sessions designed to reinforce the preparation and reflective follow-up consistent with developing good practice working outside. Just as important as technical skills and knowledge, will be the generic personal qualities of awareness, judgement and attitude which allow individuals to operate safely within a group, in potentially dangerous situations. The main activities encountered during this module will be hill-walking, indoor rock-climbing, micro navigation, camp craft and gorge scrambling. Some of these activities may be physically and emotionally demanding and will require a commitment of time and effort on behalf of all participants.
