This particular training programme took place in Kausani, Bageshwar...the home of Shiva! Our team consisting various resource persons and faculties, designed an extensive outreach programme for budding guides of the district wherein we got a chance to work with them on their soft skills, stor telling, fact building, practical training, do's and dont's of tourism etc. The training programme was held for ten days which ended with an examination. All the participants were assessed on the basis of the knowledge theyve gained through out the tenure and their presentation and story telling skills, grooming was also a part of the curriculum. We are happy to share that the batch performed well and they are ready to give experiential walks/hikes to tourists who visit Bageshwar.
