Our Instructor Training Course is four months long, including a two-week break for Christmas, and would include accommodation within St Davids.
Learn, connect, grow and thrive as part of our close-knit team of adventure and climate action experts. Participation in this course guarantees a 2025 interview to guide with TYF next season.
With accommodation included as well as 1:1 mentorship, you could spend your days sharing outdoor memories, experiencing the thrill of adventure and enjoying the magic of the Pembrokeshire Coast, whilst learning to become a fully-certified outdoor instructor.
Be the person who helps others challenge their limits, find confidence, connect with nature and face their fears. Share your passion for the outdoors with others and watch as you inspire them to do the same.
We will split the programme into several modules: Surfing, Paddlesports, Climbing, Mountaineering, Centre Based Activities and Additional Skills. Each module will have a clear, progressional pathway to competence with plenty of room to develop both personally and professionally.
We will also be able to provide opportunities to shadow and observe sessions and as you progress through the programme you will be able to take a more active role in leading groups to ensure you get hands-on experience that will aid you in fulfilling the prerequisites and log-books for your qualification assessments.

The course is delivered by expert instructors who have worked in various sectors of the outdoor industry.
Each course participant will have a dedicated mentor who will assist them during the programme, work on goal setting and monitor their progress to ensure everyone meets their full potential!
The bulk of the programme will be based at our HQ in St Davids, but you will also take part in adventures and expeditions throughout the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and various other National Parks across the UK.
The cost of the course is £8500, which includes accommodation during the 4 months that you’ll be with us, as well as a kit package at trade value if you’re interested in buying your own equipment whilst on the course. If not we’d be able to provide everything you’d need.
You’ll end up with a unique and powerful skillset and enough career options to last a lifetime, spanning adventure, education, environmental impact, carbon literacy, and more.
We’ll also be hosting an open day later this season so that those interested can come and have a chat with our head guide, Tom, who will be running the course, as well as meet those who may also be keen to apply and learn a bit more about what’s on offer. (Date TBD)
