Course preparation

Outward Bound Canada staff will support your group every step of the way – from the planning stages right through to returning home after the program is complete. Once a program is planned, we will provide your group with resources to help your students and their families to plan and prepare. All participants will complete our registration forms and can be in contact with our Admissions Department to ask questions and prepare for their program. Oftentimes, we are able to set up a meeting for students and parents to ask their questions and hear directly from the experts. It is our goal to ensure that participants and parents feel prepared and ready for their Outward Bound experience!

Testimonials

I was able to get a credit that counted towards my high school and have an adventure. It was a huge win, win and turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life.

- Jacob, 16

I’m so glad I had the opportunity to experience this course and that the two-week expedition in the Rockies counted towards my Silver Duke of Ed. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

- Naieri, 15

This course helped me realize that I am capable of so much more than I think. I’m ready to take on whatever life has to throw at me!

- Jamal, 17

I saw my students actually participate in a full day of school… Not complain about the cold or the activities, and smile all of the day.

- Wendy Blain, Principal

There’s nothing that helps a group grow more than shared trials and experiences. We learned that first hand and now our group is stronger as a result.

- Tasveer, 16

During my course, I gained a sense of confidence in myself that I did not have before… The sense of pride I had in my own ability to push through and beat my inner voice.
