- ODLS 251ODLS 251: Advanced Topics of Outdoor Leadership (Guide Training) is course designed to prepare participants to teach outdoor and leadership skills. With the nearby mountains and rivers of the Adirondacks as their classroom, students focus on backcountry and outdoor skills and teaching. Through readings, discussions, and field components, students will explore leadership skills including group dynamics, decision-making styles, and risk management. We will explore what it means to be a leader in the outdoors and how being a good leader requires creating an inclusive space where all voices feel welcomed and heard. We will also learn skills such as safe backcountry travel and etiquette, teaching principles and techniques, and considerations and concerns related to specific outdoor pursuits such as climbing, kayaking, biking, or skiing. This course is the foundation for training Outdoor Program student staff, known as Hadwen Guides. Hadwen Guides are paid student staff who work for the OP in a wide array of jobs, including pre-trip leaders, backcountry trip leaders, teaching assistants, facilities staff, and skills instructors for the rock, ice, paddling, biking, and ski programs.
