Overview

This course is designed to be run on an in-house basis only. In-house courses can be customised and tailored to each Company's specific needs. Quotes for in-house courses are available on request.

This course uses the medium of Outdoor Experiential Learning. Outdoor Experiential Learning is rapidly gaining widespread credibility as a powerful learning approach. We tend to learn best by doing. Fully 75 percent of what we are taught is retained when we actively participate in the learning. A mere 25 percent is retained from a traditional classroom lecture and note-taking approach. OEL capitalises on this fact by allowing people to participate in realistic outdoor activities that bring to life such concepts as leadership, teamwork, communication, problem solving, risk-taking, creativity and decision-making.
