This training teaches adults the skills to earn the Low Ropes
facilitator qualification (valid for three years). The Low Ropes
facilitator qualification allows you to safely and properly facilitate
a low ropes course experience. You'll learn about name games,
ice-breakers, initiatives, trust, spotting, and the elements of the
course as well as how to debrief the entire experience. Participants
will also be trained to assess and mitigate risk for participants as
well as themselves. Risk Management includes understanding incident
and near-miss trends while critically thinking and planning ahead to
prevent potentially unsafe situations - both emotional and physical.
Participants should come to this four-hour training ready to
participate, engage in the instructor-led activities, and learn by doing.
