This will be in the Peak District, £100 per person, anyone interested?

I already have two other people on the course, so just need another two for it to run.

What do you need to have done since the course to get it assessed?

When are you thinking of doing the assessment?

2) 20 sessions, working with a group. A session been a half day or an evening.
3) Have a in date 16 hour first aid certificate.
4) The personal profile completed by a suitable person that has seen you work.

Date wise it will be the 28/29 March as per the thread title.

I don't think teaching individuals counts towards it Michaf C. Group work is more like a group of schools children climbing at creation for an hour and a half who have never climbed before.

It all counts as experience, some where in between is fine. So think club trips, where you are leading two or three people up routes and coaching them.
