Developments in Single Pitch and Mountain Leader Awards Reviews are now complete for the Mountain Leader (ML) and Single Pitch Award (SPA) resulting in very few changes to the basic syllabus but a range of developments in the guidance notes.
MLTA is the association for climbing and walking leaders who either hold a national award (Full Member) or are candidates within one of the training schemes (Associate Member). It aims to provide improved communication between award holders and the training boards, allowing members to keep up to date with and be involved in current developments in mountain training.
Membership is open to anyone who has registered for any of the awards overseen by MLTUK and the home nation training boards. Membership of one of the Mountaineering Councils of the UK home nations is also required either as an individual or as a club member
News update: MLTA held a conference at Plas y Brenin on 11th November, 2006. This was a very popular event, attended by over 70 delegates. Membership of MLTA at that time was 900 people and the association is still growing. This year's conference (17/18 November is now almost fully booked) and the association has almost doubled in size.
