As you plan your course and set out on it, you’ll come
to know these folks as your helping hand, your lighthouse,
and the lifeblood of Outward Bound.
Our Admissions Advisors
– all veterans of Outward Bound activities and courses
– are committed, hard working and compassionate in meeting
your needs and concerns. They have the uncanny ability to
help you zero in on the course that’s exactly right for
you and answer your questions about the adventure ahead.
Our Instructors are a
rare breed of highly motivated and well-trained professionals
whose outdoor skills and excellence have helped Outward Bound
continue to set the standards in safety,
technical expertise and experiential education. Leaders in
the industry, they infuse every course with personal experience,
proficiency and energy. But their true gift is the ability
to inspire, mentor and allow each student to discover a route
to personal transformation on their own.
Outward Bound Instructors know that what lies ahead or behind
is not as important as what lies within. They'll help you
in every way down a path of self-discovery and through some
of the world's most spectacular mountains, rivers, oceans
and deserts. Come meet our instructors, hear their stories,
learn the skills they teach, and put your personal limits
to the test.
