Event Description

This webinar is hosted by American Trails and is FREE for attendees. 

This session will explore challenges, opportunities, conversations, and connections that are at the forefront of the profession of participant-facing facilitated recreation. We define a participant-facing outdoor facilitator as a person who leads or assists people in outdoor recreation and education activities.

Learning Objectives:

  • Backcountry to front office:  identify barriers and solutions for assisting outdoor professionals better articulate their skill sets as well as share the demand and employment options available that may not be readily apparent.

  • Overqualified and Under Experienced:  identify certification and training providers and the challenges of the outdoor industry - hiring, pay, certifications, training, risk and liability, quality and legitimacy, and sustainability

  • Sustainability of an Outdoor Recreation Career: exploration of compensation - pay and benefits, living and working conditions, housing affordability, DE&I - culture, cohorts, money conflicts.
