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 on GSOSW properties. You'll learn about name games, ice-breakers, initiatives, trust, spotting, and the course elements, as well as how to debrief the entire experience. Participants will also be trained to assess and mitigate risk for participants and themselves. Risk Management includes understanding incident and near-miss trends while critically thinking and planning ahead to prevent potentially unsafe emotional and physical situations. Participants should come to this training ready to participate, engage in the instructor-led activities, and learn by doing.
