Benefits of taking a group trek
Travel is viewed by employers and universities as a beneficial learning experience. However, taking part in a World Challenge group trek shows something more advanced.
Young people are given the opportunity to demonstrate and develop their leadership skills by taking on the job of Student Leader, or show their reliability by taking on another important role such as looking after the budget, booking transport, purchasing food or updating the expedition journal and taking photos. These tasks provide excellent real life examples for university and job applications, as well as answers to use during interviews.
Knowledge gained in real life makes more of an impact than that learned in the classroom. From wildlife, to the environment, from geography to cultural differences, the range of information that young people will be exposed to during a group trek will be immense. It will challenge their perceptions and make them grow as individuals. When they return they may find that they’ve progressed beyond their expectations.
