Ropes Challenge Course Program What is a ropes challenge course program?
Low Ropes
What would a day on a ropes challenge course look like for my team? The Challenge The challenge course program provides an effective vehicle to work on your team objectives in an environment away from the work place. In designing the program we will select and sequence activities to create the group experiencing increasingly challenging exercises. The experiences are structured to require the learner to take initiative, make decisions and be accountable for the results. Following each activity a reflective or debrief process is facilitated to draw out the individual and team learning. In each subsequent activity the group will have the opportunity to practice the skills that were effective in the previous events. The facilitators will be introducing “tools” as necessary to support the learning of skills. At the end of the program a final debrief is held to support effective transfer of the experience back to the work environment and life. We conclude the entire program with a celebration and acknowledgement of the groups' participation and achievements. A typical group will take away from the program:
