Get Qualified On Your Gap Year

A gap year is all about meeting new people, experiencing new things and expanding your horizons. It’s also a great time to gain qualifications that will enhance your university application and CV.

Why not look at making your gap year expedition applicable to what you are or will be studying? For example if you are interested in Marine Biology why not look at Greenforce’s projects in Fiji or The Bahamas?

If animal/wildlife conservation is more you’re type of thing then why not volunteer at a Panda Sanctuary in China or with Elephants in Thailand?

Another alternative is to actually participate in an expedition that has a qualification at the end. For example becoming an expedition leader or a ski instructor.

Whatever you do, make the most of your gap year, it really is the opportunity of a lifetime.

Hello everyone, welcome to the latest Gapforce Blog.

The sun is actually shining in London at the moment, and its a toasty 2 degrees as well.

Plenty going on as usual at the moment so we thought we would take a breath to tell you about some of it.

The most exciting news is about our NEW PROJECT in Morocco.

We have designed this as an EASTER SPECIAL in 2011, so you can take part during your school/uni or even work holidays as the whole experience lasts 10 days.

Full details are here, to enquire about this project click here

Don't forget to join us at the Christmas Gap Year and Career Break show in Putney on 17th December.

Thats all for now, we'll be back with another update next week.

Hi boys and girls, enjoying the weather?

No nor us.

What we have been enjoying though is the amazing pictures and videos we've been sent from our expedition leader out in Borneo, David 'Oz' Osbourne.

This Trekforce project is easily one of our most physically challenging, however as you can see from the vids and pics, the volunteers had a hell of a lot of fun as well.

If you want to find out a bit more about this project give us a buzz on 020 7384 3028 or ping an email to info@trekforce.org.uk

Stay chilled everyone ;)
