Team Challenge Program

The SIUE Team Challenge Program is designed as a teaching tool to provide groups with opportunities to work together, solve problems, motivate one another, improve communication and become exposed to new things. The primary focus of the program is to teach the group that through teamwork, they can reach any goal. Groups will first participate in Mobile Initiatives which are activities that help build team comfort, communication, and support skills. Depending on the ability of the group to work as a team, facilitators may move them to the Challenge Course where they will participate in higher level activities that allow them to more fully explore their limits while working as a team. After each event, the program facilitator leads the group through a processing phase that allows them to reflect on and evaluate what they learned by participating in the activity.

Call 650-3235 for more information on program fees or to schedule your group. Reservations must be made at least two weeks in advance.
