The Winthrop University Outdoor Education Center (OEC) has been developing teams since 1982 and has served more than 30,000 people.

Considered by many professionals to be a teaching tool ahead of its time, the OEC offers specialized group learning experiences in an effective non-traditional setting. 

Each workshop is individually planned around the needs and goals of the team.  Past groups sessions have ranged in length from three hours to multi-day.

The OEC experience is one of learning and fun.  Your team will be presented with challenges that require communication, trust, teamwork and action to solve.
