Presentation by Mandy Pohja
Have you ever wondered why some days that feel easy to you destroy your students? Come learn about the physiology and nutritional needs of NOLS students on both hiking and technical courses. We will discuss physiology and training basics as well as past and present research on NOLS nutrition. Expect to walk away with tangible ideas for yourself and your students about healthy adaptations to make on course.

About the NOLS Faculty Summit
----------------------------------------
The NOLS Faculty Summit will inspire faculty to lead and teach excellent courses. Specifically, the purpose of the Summit is to provide professional development to NOLS faculty by:
1. Enhancing and supporting the delivery of NOLS field curriculum
2. Stimulating the exchange of ideas and communication within NOLS
3. Building community and supporting NOLS' core values
4. Supporting staff excellence by enhancing faculty teaching, supervisory, and technical skills
Our goal is to engage faculty and staff, exchange ideas, and learn from each other while having fun.
----------------------------------------
As an educational organization NOLS values the open exchange of ideas and invites speakers with varying points of view to share their knowledge and opinions with our staff. The viewpoints they share are their own and do not necessarily represent NOLS perspectives.
