I want to learn rock climbing. Could you recommend a course which is acredited and worth it. I have seen some 1-2 day offers for a climbing course> But is that enough? Can I learn ropework and all the necessary stuff in just 2 days?

In reply to Aiezsedai: Can I suggest you join a club and just get out climbing with someone more experienced. Far and away the best way to learn and you can build a circle of climbing friends/partners into the bargain.

Get yourself out to Ratho. Assuming from your post that you are a complete novice, do the intro to climbing course to get the basics on safety (tie in / belay), then take it from there.

Loads of groups there who will happily show you more as you progress and the quarry attached is good at taking your first steps outside.

Check out the forums on http://www.eica-ratho.com/ for climbing partners etc.

Enjoy.
