Training the Trainee

Here at Blue Peris we are lucky to have the facility to offer 2 trainee instructor places. Out current trainees are now very competent having been with us since September 2014.  They play a crucial role in the running of the centre and are great to have around due to their enthusiasm and hard working ethic.

If your interested in becoming a Blue Peris trainee then we recruit between the months of March and May each year, with the scheme running from September to the following August.

Recently the centre manager spent a day at Cable Bay  Angelsey  training centre trainees  in the activity of sea level traversing. This activity is a key part of the outdoor education on offer at Blue Peris, as a result  staff competence is vital. With this in mind we run a varied training package for our staff to ensure they competent. On this day in particular we were also joined by other trainees form other centres so they could also gain further instruction.

The day proved to be be very worthwhile due to the weather, attitude of the trainees and the amount of areas we discussed and practiced.
