for American Students. (see tuition for more
details on payment options) Students may finance their lessons with post-dated

A. Yes. Once you have developed markets for your writing, virtually every one of your
outdoor activities becomes marketable.

free to seek Adventure-Destination and Travel assignments anywhere in the world. As your
reputation grows, lodge and resort owners will approach you!

earn two to three times the cost of your course.

become an outdoor writer?

Writing is the only school of its kind in the world devoted specifically to teaching
