| Description | The name says it all. Get out of the classroom for some real, hands-on experience in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. This program is big on adventure but also focuses on those business skills you need to work in the tourism industry or to start your own tourism business, including entrepreneurship, marketing, sustainability and business training. Your ATBO instructors are highly skilled guides in avalanche safety, rock climbing, mountaineering, whitewater kayaking, backcountry skiing, backpacking, canoeing, and sea kayaking. Opt for the one-year certificate or add on another 10 months to earn the diploma. Both options provide credits toward a tourism degree and include classroom sturdy, lab work, field trip experiences and a six-week practicum. No matter what option you choose, be ready for some serious fun.
