For those looking to lead paddling trips rather than teach, we offer Trip Leading and Guide Training programs focused on group management, risk assessment, navigation, and rescue skills in real-world conditions. These courses prepare paddlers to safely and effectively lead trips on the water, whether for recreation or professional guiding. Additionally, our CPR, First Aid, and Wilderness First Aid (WFA) courses provide essential lifesaving skills for outdoor professionals and adventurers.
