Our unique style of education..... For all climbers, launching their first foreign expedition is always a daunting endeavor. Many aspiring climbers only dream of expeditions in the high mountains and never actually make the bold move to plan and execute their own. SIET helps its students realize their dreams by integrating an intensive curriculum progression into expeditions that make serious summit bids in the Great Ranges of the world. This allows our students to gain the experience and judgment necessary for managing the inherent risk of their own expeditions while providing a solid foundation for working in outdoor education. SIET focuses on teaching students the planning skills to design their own expedition and the technical skills needed to climb world class routes.
