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.
As of January 2008, there are over 2200 Leave No Trace Masters world wide representing nine countries and 50 U.S. states! This valuable training is recognized throughout the world by the outdoor industry and land management agencies. The profile of our graduates is highly varied from USFS and NPS backcountry rangers to scout leaders, from outdoor retail executives to school teachers, from college outing club members to outfitters and guides.
Successful graduates of the Master Educator course have the ability to train others in Leave No Trace skills and ethics, and can offer Leave No Trace Trainer courses (two-day) and Awareness Workshops (one-day or shorter).
Tuition for the five-day Master Educator course ranges from $500–$830, depending on the course provider and the course location. Every participant on a Master Educator course will receive a one-year membership to Leave No Trace. Partial scholarships are available through Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics.
This course will fill quickly! Be sure to sign up early in order to ensure your participation.
