Winter safety and skill-development courses
We are accredited to train and deliver the Travel Industry Safety Passport course, which leads to one of Finland's few safety standards in tourism. We offer a standard Finnish first aid qualification with optional add-on modules, for instance a theoretical journey into the world of cold and cold-related risks, or realistic Arctic role-playing scenarios developing cold-safety awareness and action. We are also developing an Arctic-specific wilderness first aid product with international specialists.
Polar expedition preparation
For those preparing for extreme polar adventures, we run customised expedition skill-development courses on one of the best preparation grounds in Europe. Forget Norway's alpine environment. Finland's high plateaus offer true Arctic conditions that far more closely mimic Antarctica.
Avalanche Safety Training CoursesOne-day and three-day avalanche- and snow-safety courses teaching risk assessment, route choice and rescue, run across Northern Finland and Norway.
Mountain and Glacier TrainingGlacier courses and guided treks on the Lyngen Alps glaciers of northern Norway - from a 1-day trek to a comprehensive 5-day course.
