The RCI award allows you to lead groups climbing and abseiling on single pitch crags. It challenges your personal and group skills and explores the environment around us, making for a very well rounded award. It’s such a fun and varied qualification to use, allowing you to work in many areas – whether it’s in an indoor wall, at an Outdoor Education Centre or as a Freelance Instructor. We run the RCI training course and RCI assessment course in both Pembrokeshire and North Wales. If the RCI scheme sounds like what you’re after then get in touch! We offer RCI training and assessment courses in South Wales and Snowdonia.
