Much like the Order of the Arrow and Woodbadge, within ShelterBox training there is an element of keeping the details to yourself as not to spoil it for future participants. What I can tell you is that the past week has been mentally and physically exhausting (as promised); and I loved it.
Myself and 11 other candidates spent 4 days being assessed on our leadership skills, navigational abilities, self sufficiency in primitive conditions, logistic skills and our knowledge of ShelterBox and it's role within the global humanitarian community.
This is a blog post that you should read. My good friend Doug Metz has been working and training with Shelterbox. It is much more than Scouting. Read this blog and the others on his site about Shelterbox and his journey.
