A group of IFMGA/NNMGA mountain guides who were already certified by the National Skill Testing Board (NSTB) (a subsidiary of the Council of Technical Education and Vocational Training – CTEVT) at Level 4 (graduation level equivalency) successfully completed an Assessor Training for the Skill Testing Board in the mountaineering sector.

In Nepal, there are four levels of skill test among which level 4 is the highest ranking. A group of five mountain guides from NNMGA participated and completed the assessor training from CTEVT. The successful assessor candidates can now conduct examination in their skill sector as stated by CTEVT. The five days program was held in CTEVT’s Training Institute for Technical Instruction (TITI). This has paved way for formal integration of mountain guide course and training in Nepal with Government’s vocational education system.

The  participants of this Assessor Training for mountain guides are as follows:
