I completed the "Initiation" week long course with these guys and it was fabulous. I would recommend it to everyone. Their course dates but up REALLY fast so if anyone is interested get on their site and take a look.

The initiation course is really an introduction to survival skills - shelters, fires, some camp cooking, knife skills, tool making etc...

The journeyman is properly tough - it includes being dropped in the wild for 3 days with your knife and a pot for boiling water. You need to make fire, shelter and forage for 3 days. Sometime I'll get permission from the missus for that one!

Hope it goes well for you. Practice every chance you have...
there is so many skills that cross over from wilderness survival to an urban setting.
