National Centre course schedule
Special feature for August: up to a week of orienteering fun and learning - 2 days of intensive personal coaching to take you from total beginner to Light Green standard, sandwiched between Teaching Orienteering part 1 (no experience required) and UKCC Level 1 (for which you require competence at Light Green standard). Do as many of the separate elements as you wish.
Two downloads now available: 2010 course schedule
Closing dates: Bookings will not normally be accepted after the closing date, where one is stated. For some courses, an early closing date is necessary in order to obtain course resources.
Most courses are run at Glenmore Lodge; it is our preferred venue for several reasons, not least the fact that we’ve got an excellent range of areas nearby which are suitable for a wide variety of activities. The course schedule is constantly changing, with latest additions or cancellations outlined in the summary as above. Please note all course fees are non-residential. We do not normally arrange accommodation, as requirements vary so much, though we are happy to suggest options.
Courses will be confirmed or cancelled within 24 hours of their stated closing date. We recommend that you don’t commit to accommodation etc. until your course has been confirmed.
Unless specified otherwise, please send a booking form DOC or PDF, or Contact us for further information. We aim to acknowledge bookings as soon as possible after receiving the form, so if you don’t get an acknowledgement, please phone. It has been known for people to send things to wrong addresses, whether e-mail or postal, and sometimes even for people to think they’ve sent things when in fact they haven’t.
