AORE Programs & Services
We’ve worked with the various initiatives across AORE in 2018 to better define the various programs and align effort to achieve the stated outcomes. Here are some overviews for those programs!
Emerging Leaders Program
To further the goal of advancing professionals and students in outdoor recreation and education by providing space and the opportunity for emerging professionals in outdoor recreation, education and conservation to network and learn as well as make a concentrated effort to reach populations historically and currently underrepresented in the previously mentioned industries.
Global University
Through a generous donation by G Adventures, the AORE and G Adventures Global University initiative is intently aimed at the academic and experiential format of global outdoor learning to foster a community of experts within outdoor recreation and education. Through working within the outdoor education community, AORE and G Adventures seek to support the appreciation of our natural environment, raise the bar of practice and performance in the global programming development and enhance the profession of outdoor education and recreation through facilitated discussions on best practices, networking with industry leaders and industry experts in order to impart knowledge and inspire others while on a truly unique global adventure.
Outdoor Orientation Program (OOPS)
To help those in the outdoor orientation industry to support students involved in wilderness pre-orientation programs. OOPS provides context for program development and growth, best practices, new program techniques, and nuts and bolts information that will help established and aspiring programs.
Women’s Leadership Mentor Institute
The AORE Women’s Leadership Mentor Institute (WLMI) will provide an inclusive environment for women to revisit technical outdoor and leadership skills, establish mentoring relationships, and increase women’s confidence to pursue leadership positions in the field of outdoor recreation and education. Investing in women leaders will result in empowered role models to further inspire and engage the future of female outdoor recreation.
