Virtual Course planning and Condes Course. Mon 13th April.
10 April 2020
For all of you who have set some self-improvement lockdown goals, we're here to help! To help you tick the "Learn a new skill" box we're holding an Orienteering course setting and Condes software evening on Monday 13th April from 7:30pm. The first half an hour will be a quick summary of the basics of course setting, with some ideas about what makes a good course, at the various levels of orienteering technical difficulty. At 8pm we will start a hands-on session to help you master the Condes course setting software. The course will be delivered through zoom with slides and screen sharing to deliver the material. Participants are welcome to join at either 7:30pm or 8:00pm.
