A highly successful course for 6 strong climbing instructors from the new UIAA member organisation, Zirve. Building from lessons learned on MIA training courses and the recent Train the Trainers course developed in partnership with Plas y Brenin, this course was delivered at Olympos, Turkey. Starting with sports climbing and a successful assessment of the candidates personal climbing standard, the course progressed on to teaching principles on progressively more difficult working environments, culminating in 2 new multi-pitch routes, one of which is destined for instant "classic" status at UIAA Grade IV+. Staffing the course were MLTUK's Steve Long and ENEQ's Ron Whitehead, with support from the Petzl Foundation.
