Rock Climbing Instructor (RCI) Training
Session Overview
The Rock Climbing Instructor (RCI) is a nationally recognised award delivered on behalf of Mountain Training England. Mountain Training aims to inspire, enable and develop people in walking, climbing and mountaineering through the provision of nationally and internationally recognised skills training and leadership qualifications. Five Clouds Climbing is approved to deliver Rock Climbing Instructor and skills courses. All Mountain Training courses are quality assured. This qualification is all about taking people climbing and abseiling on single pitch crags and artificial structures. Whether you're a an outdoor centre instructor, volunteer or even a trainee stunt person the Rock Climbing Instructor qualification trains and assesses experienced rock climbers to instruct climbing. The standard Rock Climbing Instructor training lasts for 3 days and will be run by myself. I can also deliver a 2 day training course if all participants have already attended a Climbing Wall Instructor training course. Before you book onto a Rock Climbing Instructor training course, make sure you have done the following: - You must be registered on the scheme. - You must have an up to date logbook (preferably DLOG) with evidence of the following: - 15 led routes which must be graded rock climbs with traditional protection. - 15 led routes at a climbing wall. - 5 led routes which must be outdoor bolt-protected sport climbs.
