Our model for leadership is Christ, our theory of leadership is based on Scripture. Although other theories of leadership help us understand leading principles, God's ideas about leadership are foundational to our program. It is God, not us, who makes the kind of leaders we want to see emerging today. This sets us apart from secular leadership training programs. We approach the wilderness as a ministry environment. That means we recognise its value to the whole person as testifying to God's reality and character. This sets us apart from training for leadership in other environments, e.g. church leadership or corporate leadership. We aim to develop leaders who are able to serve those they lead. Another way to look at it is that we are trying not just to serve our COLTS participants but are equipping them to serve others. This sets us apart from experiential and outdoor skills programs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1634235593784-FEUJDHCJ3Q5Z3BYBK27Z/DSC_0563.jpg Details - The COLTS Model An anticipated and desired result of COLTS is that individuals with an interest in the outdoors can learn, practice, and develop personal leadership skills to the point where they are demonstrably qualified to lead outdoor programs. At the same time, they develop a unique understanding of their personal limitations and are encouraged to develop personal methods of dealing with those limitations. The emphasis within the program is on experiential learning, where the participants are taught concepts and theory and then allowed to experiment with implementation of those concepts, culminated with constructive feedback and guided encouragements. COLTS participants are given the opportunity to first implement the concepts within a peer group and under close supervision, and then progressively given further opportunities to implement with less and less supervision. Which in turn, carefully exposes them to progressively greater responsibility. The effect of such training is to give the greatest amount of personal competence within a short time frame. A large reason for this, is that the training becomes, by default, tailored to the specific needs of each participant. Basic and general concepts are taught to everyone together, but feedback and further instruction is given to individual participants as they attempt to implement those concepts. This is what we call the ‘experiential model’. In using this model as the basis of our programming, we may not give quite as broad a theoretical base as some other methods, but the concepts, skills, and training given may be more practical, and may contribute towards the development of more “able” leaders. It is our desire to use this learning model as the basis of the development of COLTS. In so doing, we feel that we will offer a practical sort of leadership development which lends itself to many specific applications and not just the wilderness setting. Wilderness skills will be taught, and taught well, but the leadership development is applicable to any endeavour the student may choose to pursue in the future. This is our model. https://outdoorleadership.ca/instructors daily 0.75 2025-11-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/cb1f3ec2-b810-47c6-bebb-0841d4363a95/IMG_9663.jpg Instructors - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/30c50b9a-27d5-4bcc-9aa3-738532796725/IMG_6335.jpg Instructors - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/61dd5c29-f190-4e3a-8dab-752d12f0bfd9/IMG_4345.jpg Instructors - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/8dc69a16-2501-47a7-a7e5-d38048388285/WhatsApp+Image+2024-09-05+at+15.02.42_d3ba462e.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/d4d90439-61af-4e01-8ecd-28aba68d3150/Nathan.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/94d28ce1-ab72-4eeb-a435-6368a9ff63b5/unnamed.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/cb508338-fbfe-4c88-988d-8dd0863fe64c/IMG-20250203-WA0015.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1633560677942-1BZJNN9XLUSLQ16PMFSW/mariah.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/c3c4add9-491a-4c09-9de8-01a72d81bd95/IMG_0592+%281%29a.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/3691b416-7208-4c50-9bb1-4baa57591426/IMG_5784.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1634336327510-PEDBDNJE9V42RNQYYAXC/20201018_201304a.jpg Instructors https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/ee730eb5-dfd5-427e-88da-ad963de51892/IMG_0673a.jpg Instructors https://outdoorleadership.ca/faq daily 0.75 2024-12-10 https://outdoorleadership.ca/lanea-schroeder-scholarship daily 0.75 2025-12-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760641001-D99NUPLL2YK4ZQTXQKG0/mountain.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760883412-G36RYFMHSZYRJMCC78AK/leadership.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760977679-46XOJ2BTVY78LCZJ9BM7/calendar.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760999927-SE754UEQ8U9OAMBFHVDM/trekking.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652761068485-3CHNO0QNLFCJ7XPJ1IMF/Prerequisite.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652761135534-5JRVXD782KHM5AARG7NW/apply.png Lanea Schroeder Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/a9f9aed0-072f-42d4-9067-dc69f319f300/141008847_3714217361934158_8374936539281860607_na.jpg Lanea Schroeder Scholarship - Who was Lanea Schroeder? Lanea Schroeder was an energetic, caring person who loved healthy food and was serious about her faith. She grew up mostly in Ukraine before she moved back to Canada. After high school she attended Millar College of the Bible where she met her husband, Logan Schroeder. Logan and Lanea, fresh out of school, enthusiastic about life, adventure, and their faith, decided they wanted to support summer camp ministry. They became involved with Blue Bronna Wilderness Camp (BBWC) and Crowsnest Lake Bible Camp (CLBC), seeking to share the gospel in an outdoor setting. After volunteering for a few weeks at CLBC and eagerly joining out-trips in support roles, they decided to apply for COLTS in 2020. They were both accepted and did COLTS together, as a married couple, growing strong community and supporting CLBC’s mission. Their leadership in CLBC’s outdoor programs was admirable. Lanea returned the following summer to co-instruct a Leave No Trace Instructor course, lead more out-trips, and volunteer in other capacities, while Logan accompanied her and volunteered periodically that summer too. Lanea passed her first ACMG Apprentice Hiking Guide exam that year, and more seriously took up rock climbing and skiing. Tragically, following that summer, Lanea was involved in a spring skiing incident on April 13, 2022. Her party was ascending Mount des Poilus while on a multi-day ski traverse of the Wapta Icefield in Yoho National Park when she fell through a cornice near the summit ridge. She fell 300m and her injuries were fatal. Lanea’s husband Logan was not on the trip, and he continues to this day to be an active member of the CLBC community. CLBC is richly blessed by the service and energy Logan brings, while Lanea Schroeder’s previous involvement has been instrumental in many people’s lives. https://outdoorleadership.ca/flexible-admission daily 0.75 2026-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1634767186415-IZBX4AYUHGIY2LBVQCGR/trekking.png Flexible Admission https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1634767479455-UEK00K6LPEI8UM042YH4/certificate.png Flexible Admission https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760641001-D99NUPLL2YK4ZQTXQKG0/mountain.png Flexible Admission https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/615dd72b1c264b43851a62f1/1652760883412-G36RYFMHSZYRJMCC78AK/leadership.png Flexible Admission
