E-learning top-ups

We currently have five e-learning modules available, with more under development. All of the modules are designed to complement one or more of the Mountain Training schemes and we think they're a great way to supplement your learning and development, regardless of what stage you're at.

One of these modules (Geology) has been designed by us, the Mountain Training Association and is exclusive to MTA members. Some of these modules have been allocated a CPD numerical value, so once you've completed them you can also gain CPD points to add to your online record.

Who can access the e-learning modules?

Geology -

The Geology modules are exclusively available to members of the Mountain Training Association and were developed with the help of Paul Gannon. They are designed to develop your understanding of mountain formation, rock types and mountain destruction. If you're not currently a member, but you're interested in joining, click here to find out more.

Met Office weather -

This module was developed in partnership with the Met Office and will help you, as a leader, to plan a journey in the hills and mountains and recognise common meteorological signs. This module is available to all candidates that have registered on a Mountain Training scheme.

Planning a walk -

This module will help you to plan a hill or mountain walk and is accessible to anyone that has created an online Mountain Training account.

Please note - these modules are optimised for laptop and desktop screens.
