THE GEORGIA TECH
LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE COURSE World Class Training in Your Own Backyard!
Three words that don’t usually go together: Affordable, Effective, and Fun. That’s how participants describe their challenge course experiences! We are proud of what people say about us. It means you can trust that a modest investment can provide significant returns for your team. Fun is part of what we deliver, but it’s not the main purpose. We think of “fun” like the cup when you buy a coffee – It’s included with your purchase, but it’s not the reason you stand in line at Starbucks. Adventure-based trainings can lead individuals to achieve more! An afternoon can improve how groups work together. Challenge Course trainings are appropriate for student organizations, work teams, businesses, and any group that thrives on effective teamwork. Call 404-385-1374 or visit crc.gatech.edu/orgt/lcc
