The scheme at level one is suitable for those who wish to lead groups in simple terrain such as wide woodland tracks and at level two for more technical terrain. The training course covers both environments and leading on roads. Level 2 includes singletrack below 600m.
Course Description The Mountain Bike Instructors Award Scheme is awarded by the NCFE, furthermore it is accredited by: The Birmingham Education Authority, The Statutory Youth Service, West Midlands Police and The Urban Adventure Support Group, The Association Of British Cycle Coaches, Cyclists Touring Club and it is recognised by the Adventurous Activities Licensing Authority. Training courses take place over a two-day period at our base in Llangollen in North East Wales. The course is not about learning stunts, extreme manoeuvres or making you feel inadequate; it is designed for people who wish to lead groups into wild country or mountainous terrain safely. However, obviously there is a need to achieve a certain level of technical ability.DetailsPricing: £160pp excluding MIAS registration fee.

I thoroughly enjoyed the two days and learnt a great deal. It was run in a very relaxed way which can only help to put people at ease, especially those who do not work well under the pressure of an assessment. Please pass on my thanks to Peter for a very well planned and executed course. S.
