Applications for the North Face Leadership Summer Course 2019 are now being accepted

Dear Mountaineers

The North Face Leadership Course is The Alpine Club Of Canada’s flagship program for training aspiring section trip leaders. Through alpine environments and technical travel, these leadership courses emphasize the ‘human-factor’ in leader’s decision-making, applicable to ACC activities across Canada. The Toronto section can endorse up one candidate for the course. We are now accepting applications.

The summer course will be offered between August 3rd and August 10th 2019 as part of the General Mountaineering Camp. The cost of the course is $1095+tax.

For further details of the course, it’s content and requirements, please refer to the national site:
