QUALITY OUTDOOR EDUCATION YOUTH WORKER TRAINING
|
A meaningful and worthwhile training programme for young men and women from the community is offered by Merseyside Youth Challenge Trust.
|
The training is vocationally based, building key skills and leading to nationally recognised qualifications in the field of Outdoor Education.
Technical skill training given includes both theoretical and practical elements in a variety of recognised outdoor challenging pursuits.This is then linked to hands-on experience, under the supervision of qualified training instructors.
Students assist the delivery of Outdoor Adventure Activities to client groups of children and young people.Feedback from the children is highly beneficial in rebuilding self confidence.

|
The combination of qualifications gained, sound experience and restored self-esteem, coupled with the development of a work ethos has resulted in some 50% of students gaining jobs or going on to further education annually.
The Centre is approved by the government inspectorate, the Adventure Activities Licensing Authority, for the delivery of single-pitch climbing and abseiling.

From my time at MYCT I have been inspired to become a positive influence on young peoples lives. Through my training I received I was able to forge an amazing career in outdoor education with PGL. I am now working as a youth worker and training to be a teacher, all thanks to MYCT.
I did a whole week at MYCT this week. I have gained confidence and have battled with my fear of heights. I would like to thank Bill for the warm welcome, and Jeff who also made me feel welcome and makes me want to come back..
I would like to say a great big thank you to Phil who was a great leader and made it easy to get on with him and everyone else.
