CIVILIAN RECOGNITION OF
MILITARY MOUNTAINEERING AWARDS
The Mountain Leader Training Board has been providing train­ ing for leaders, instructors and supervisors for thirty years. Its awards are recognised by the D epartm ent for Education and by many other civilian organisations. While the services have always maintained strong links with the MLTB, the two organi­ sations have recently been working towards harmonising mili­ tary and civilian awards.
Mountainwalking Leader Award
It is now possible to attend Unit Expedition Leader and Joint Services Mountain Expedition Leader courses as an MLTB can­ didate. Provided you have already registered with the MLTB, the UEL course will count as training for the Mountainwalking Leader Award and the subsequent JSMEL course as assess­ ment. Even if you didn’t register with us but have got a UEL or JSMEL award then you could be eligible for exemption from training for the ML scheme.
Single Pitch Supervisors Award
The Single Pitch Supervisors Award, introduced in 1992, is available to anyone with a genuine interest in climbing and group supervision. While the military and civilian awards are not yet harmonised, JSRCI, Rock Leader or even Top Roping & Abseiling awards would be considered as part of an application for exemption from training for the SPSA scheme.
Mountain Instructor Award
If you already have a Mountainwalking Leader Award (Summer) and substantial rock climbing and instructional expe­ rience then you can apply to register with the M IA scheme.
