On this course there is an opportunity to discover land and water based outdoor activities and develop personal confidence through challenging yourself and achieving things that maybe you didn't think you were capable of, thus preparing you better for the unexpected demands of a uniformed public service career. There is a strong emphasis on your own health and fitness and you will develop your own competence in physical sport and recreation.
