National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS)

NOLS is a nonprofit global wilderness school that seeks to help you step forward boldly as a leader.

NOLS believe that anyone can be a leader; it’s their role to provide the environment and training to help you discover your full potential. They do that in classrooms close to home and in remote wilderness areas around the world.

NOLS is an organization with heart, expertise, and wildness, and these qualities help us support powerful, authentic experiences.

Mission:
Their mission is to be the leading source and teacher of wilderness skills and leadership that serve people and the environment. Their community - staff, students, trustees, and alumni - shares a commitment to wilderness, education, leadership, safety, community, and excellence.
