Nepal now has its first fully qualified International Mountain Guide, so the Nepal Mountain Guide Association is well on its way to becoming a full member of the IFMGA. Hopefully the UIAA Training Standards support for the Basic Mountaineering Course at Kakani can help trek leaders in their progress towards the ultimate goal of international mountain guide. Despite its late start in the development of qualifications, Nepal has made rapid progress thanks patuicularly to the long-term support of the Slovenian and French instructors and Guides. At the UIAA Genearl Assembly I felt that we made good progress towards integrating all the existing projects into a more harmonious structure.
