Mark Tozer aims to provide quality training and learning opportunities to anyone wanting to use the outdoors for more than personal interest. Whether you’re a school leaver, teacher, youth worker or someone looking for a career change, the following courses can set you on the right path.

MLTUK Climbing Wall Award scheme for climbers who are in a position of responsibility when supervising climbing activities on indoor or outdoor climbing walls, artificial boulders and towers. It is primarily concerned with ensuring good practice, leading to the safe enjoyment of climbing activities, and to an understanding of the sport.

MLTUK Single Pitch Award scheme provides training and assessment on how to organise and supervise safe, effective and enjoyable sessions for relative novices on single pitch crags both in and outdoors. Ideal for anyone with personal climbing experience who might act as a leader for groups of novices. Further information at MLTUK.

BCU & UKCC Awards qualify you to coach and lead paddling activities on flat water and discipline specific environments. Mark Tozer is able to offer UKCC Level 1 & 2 coach award training assessment as well as BCU Level 3 Sea Coach training and assessment. In addition the Paddlesports Performance Star Awards are available in Canoe, White Water and Sea including the new 4* Sea Leadership. Further information from BCU and UKCC.

First Aid Training: Current first aid knowledge is a vital part of working life in the outdoors. All N.G.B's require a candidate to hold a valid certificate before attending assessment. Mark Tozer recommends Active First Aid Training.

Calendar: All scheduled ‘open’ courses can be found on the Forum page of this website.
