About the workshop
One of a suite of NICAS workshops, our Wild Climbers workshop aims to familiarise coaches with the content, resources, and delivery of our Wild Climbers scheme. It’s a great option for any staff who are less comfortable working with younger climbers and is a fantastic opportunity for all staff to get hands-on experience delivering new material and receiving individualised feedback. This workshop includes:
- Overview of NICAS Wild Climbers
- Staff and facility pre-requisites
- Available resources
- Props and aids
- Importance of session planning
- Creating themes, being enthusiastic and maintaining safety
- Managing parents and carers
- Inclusivity and adjusting content
- Managing expectations (participant, coach, parent, facility)
