R.O.A.G. Academy (Recreation Outdoor Adventure Guiding) is a proudly South African, family-owned and run training academy that specialises in professional outdoor occupational training and services. We are accredited by CATHSSETA and committed to providing high-quality, nationally recognised certifications that meet SAQA standards.
At our core, we’re passionate about two things — people and the outdoors. Whether you're pursuing a career in the adventure and tourism industry or want to grow your leadership and facilitation skills, we’re here to equip you with the tools, training, and experience you need. From guiding and facilitator training, to school camps and Adventure Based Learning, our hands-on programs help individuals and teams build confidence, character, and capability — all in the great outdoors.
We believe that the best learning happens through experience — in nature, in teams, and in real-world scenarios. That’s why we’re committed to delivering training that not only meets industry expectations but raises the bar. Every course, camp, and assessment we offer is built on a foundation of excellence, safety, and care.
Through specialised training in facilitation, recreation, outdoor leadership, and more, we help students grow both personally and professionally. Whether you're just beginning your journey or have years of experience and want to formalise it through Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), ROAG is here to guide and support you every step of the way.
At ROAG Academy, we don’t just deliver training — we create transformative outdoor learning experiences. Our approach combines accredited education with heart, hands-on skill-building, and a genuine connection to nature and community. Here’s what makes us stand out:
