If you love being in the outdoors and want to turn your passion into a career, TPP’s outdoor education programmes will help get you started.
In 2020, TPP is introducing the New Zealand Certificate in Outdoor Adventure Education (Multi Skilled) level 4. The programme offers all the same fantastic outdoor education training that TPP is famous for, under a new, nationally recognised framework.
Whether you’re a keen beginner with general outdoor experience or already have considerable technical experience under your belt, the New Zealand Certificate in Outdoor Adventure Education will increase your skills and challenge you. TPP's low student to tutor ratios and teaching experience means it can help you progress at your level, pushing you further for more challenge or breaking it down if it’s all new to you.
You’ll learn how to handle yourself in the outdoors and work toward becoming an outdoor instructor. To augment the practical subjects and round out your skill set you will spend some time studying risk assessment and management, meteorology, environmental science, digital media, communication skills, tikanga Maori, leadership and facilitation, outdoor first aid, pursuit theory, trip planning, exercise science, work and study skills.
