The Mountain Leader Training Association
MLTA is the association for climbing and walking leaders who either hold a national award (Full Member) or are candidates within one of the training schemes (Associate Member). It aims to provide improved communication between award holders and the training boards, allowing members to keep up to date with and be involved in current developments in mountain training.
Membership is open to anyone who has registered for any of the awards overseen by MLTUK and the home nation training boards. Membership of one of the Mountaineering Councils of the UK home nations is also required either as an individual or as a club member
News update: MLTA held its most recent conference at Plas y Brenin on the weekend of 8-9th November, 2008. As always this was a very popular event, attended by over 70 delegates. Membership of MLTA at that time was 1500 people and the association is still growing.
