Leave No Trace Educational Partnership

ACA is pleased to announce an educational partnership with Leave No Trace. As ACA phases out the OLS program, Leave No Trace will provide instructor and trainer training to teach adults to teach others how to live comfortably and with minimal impact in the outdoors. ACA members can take advantage of grant opportunities through Leave No Trace to attend training, implement the PEAK (Promoting Environmental Awareness in Kids) programs, schedule traveling trainers to come and teach kids at camp, and enjoy up to a 20 percent discount on merchandise through the Leave No Trace store. Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers Dusty and Amy Allison will join us at the 2006 ACA National Conference in Chicago to provide information about their programs and conduct an educational workshop.

The Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics has posted their 2006 Master Educator Schedule. A Master Educator course is typically five days in length and designed for people who are actively teaching others backcountry skills or providing recreation information to the public. The curriculum content and schedule of courses is available online.
