Want to bring people outside to explore, enjoy, and help protect our region’s most beautiful places? Become a Sierra Club outing leader!

The Sierra Club Outings program trains volunteers to lead a variety of outings—from short local hikes to kayak trips to service trips. This free Outdoor Leader Training can help you develop the skills and confidence you need to help others have safe and enjoyable experiences outdoors.

As a certified Sierra Club Outings Leader, you’ll join a community of local outdoor enthusiasts who love to engage others to explore, enjoy and protect the outdoor places you love.

Through discussions, role-playing scenarios and practice, Outdoor Leader Training participants will learn:

• How to plan fun, engaging outside adventures for a variety of skill levels

• Where to go and what to do

• How to promote your outing for good turnout and engage a diverse audience

• How to screen and educate participants so they are appropriately prepared and equipped

• How to promote proper outdoor etiquette and leave-no-trace

• How to avoid hazards

• What to do when things go wrong

*Notes: We strongly suggest you attend an outings leader info session prior to this training. If you have not had the opportunity please reach out and we will share a recording from a previous session. There will be pre-work assigned prior to the training to ensure we can fit everything in and have some downtime away from screen. This is a 6 hour virtual training with breaks built in.*
