Core Courses: Outdoor Education Curriculum (Class
Calendar)
The core courses are the heart of the THP curriculum. These outdoor education classes cover the full
spectrum of skills needed to survive and thrive in the woods and with the earth,
regardless of adverse conditions. The first two levels of the core course (Basic
and Level 1) are an introduction to the full, wide spectrum of THP curriculum. These
courses introduce many of the skills as those skills relate to the concept of specialties.
After Level 1 is completed, Level 2 focuses specifically on only one specialty of
the student's choice, adding more skills, knowledge and a lot of practice in this
specific area, but most importantly offering a chance to fully practice these skills
with some stress and scenario thrown in. Level 3 then pulls together a full team
to learn and train together with many stressors present (hunger, sleep deprivation,
thirst, anxiety, security, etc.).
