Frequently Asked Questions
What Is NICAS?
NICAS provides a safe, fun introduction to climbing indoors, helping learners to develop climbing movement skills and build their confidence, and create a grassroots pathway to additional climbing activities both indoors and outdoors.
Level 1
This is the entry-level award for candidates who wish to learn basic climbing skills. This level focuses on a safety-conscious attitude as much as climbing skills.
Level 2
This level is a key stage in a climber's development. It is designed to correspond to most climbing centres' membership standards. A level 2 holder has mastered the basics of climbing on an artificial climbing structure and should be able to climb and boulder safely.
Level 3
This level concentrates on climbing techniques and movement, with some additional knowledge of equipment. You must spend a lot of time climbing to improve your technique and fitness.
Level 4
This level introduces you to lead climbing with all its attendant risks and required skills. Candidates who gain this level should be capable of lead climbing competently and in control.
Level 5
This level focuses on improved performance through training and a deeper understanding of the sport. Holders of this award will have achieved a high level of skill, knowledge and motivation through considerable effort over many months.
Climbers can record progress in their own logbook, giving learners a clear roadmap to track their climbing achievements and a sense of being part of the NICAS community.
