At Venture we recognise that for some the jump headlong into a full on overseas expedition may be just a little too much!  Remembering our roots is the solution to this conundrum, how does one attain experience without the skills and confidence.  We vividly remember our first tentative steps into the outdoors, the gradual learning and experience curve that led us to this position and have never forgotten the assistance, guidance and patience of those who have helped us along the way. 

As a result our ‘skills and training’ section is based around that very ethos; we learned from others and we would like to assist you to build your skills and confidence.  

However, we also recognise that training and skills vary greatly dependant on numerous factors that include age, experience, professional necessity and individual goals.  Being part of such a large network of professionals we have the course for you, from the Duke of Edinburgh Awards scheme, Armed services courses, individual and professional development.   

You only have to ask.  We are more than happy to organise, arrange and deliver. 

We aim to ensure that our courses are relevant and recognised by appropriate National Governing Bodies thus providing the necessary accreditation and certification. Emergency first aid course is ideal for those working in the outdoors and leading groups and is designed to suit all outdoor instructors, centre instructors, club leaders, teachers and youth group leaders relevant to all outdoor disciplines, climbing, mountaineering, paddle and water sports.

This National Award Scheme is designed to provide candidates with a progressive developmental programme with the overall intent of furnishing candidates with the skills and confidence in UK hill terrain. 

Venture Force summer and winter mountain skills courses are designed to elevate your personal mountain skills and thus confidence enabling you to progress toward full on overseas expeditions.  Delivered by experienced mountain and overseas expedition leaders this course goes just that little bit further.
