The wonderful thing about outdoor education is that often the test comes first and the lesson comes second.

Our Approach to Outdoor Education
Through school and group programs or summer youth courses, we take participants out of their everyday lives and immerse them in exciting outdoor adventures where they must use their individual strengths, and also work together as a team to succeed.
Our adventure-oriented approach provides participants with multiple opportunities and support to challenge themselves and helps them build friendships, confidence and a sense of community through hands-on experiences that celebrate diversity and promote personal growth.
Fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation for the environment is another focus of the Outward Bound experience. Environmental issues and concerns are part of the program and range from no-trace camping and service projects on the expeditions to larger global issues that affect us all.
