Adventure Based Learning (ABL) is a particular form of experiential education, learning by doing, that challenges people’s homeostasis through a blend of perceived emotional and other types of risk.
“Through novel and challenging group experiences, positive individual change can happen” – Rod Quintrell.
There is one key phrase that we believe here at Venture. “Adventure is a state of mind”. For some people ‘adventure’ is doing challenging outdoor activities like our High Ropes Challenge Course. For others ‘adventure’ is leaving the safety of their comfort zones and interacting with new people.
As such Venture training programs are tailored to meet the specific needs of your organisation. They are designed to be challenging but achievable for all ages. Our programs have a strong focus on safety, trust, support and most importantly ‘challenge by choice’. This means that the level of challenge is chosen by the participant, not forced upon them.
