Tutor:
National Trainer, Karen Ingram is the tutor for your Instructors Course; her contact details are 07958 655621 or karen.ingram@britishnordicwalking.org.uk should you have any questions beforehand.
The course can be surprisingly demanding, simply due to the volume of information with which you will be presented and asked to retain and process. We are confident you will also find it rewarding and motivational: many of the previous participants have gone away from the training, starting classes and obtaining new clients immediately. Parts of the course are assessed and so you may wish to do some preparation using the material which will be sent to you prior to the Course.
