We also provide accredited qualifications, skills courses, and apprenticeships. Whether you're upskilling staff, developing future leaders, or looking to build personal capability, we’ll work with you to create a practical, enjoyable experience that aligns with your objectives.

Skills courses & qualifications
Our sister company Skern Training and Skills provides a comprehensive selection of accredited short courses and qualifications. Whether your goal is to build confidence in an outdoor environment or pursue a vocational certification, our experienced team are here to support your journey.
We offer nationally recognised qualifications, including RYA Powerboat courses, Mountain Training awards, and British Canoeing certifications and more!

Active team building
The perfect opportunity to get out of the office or away from zoom to re-address the needs of the team. Our active team building days are ideal for getting to know each other better and developing team bonds.
Sessions can be either a full or half day and can run in the evening during the summer months. You can mix and match a great selection of exciting activities to ensure that everyone gets the best from the day.
Apprenticeships
Skern Training and Skills tailor apprenticeships to your business, incorporating your culture, vision and values, ensuring each apprenticeship fits in seamlessly.
