This course is based on the National Guidance provided by the Outdoor Education Advisers’ Panel (OEAP), by whom it is certificated.
Learning outside the classroom has always been an important component of education. The EVC’s role is to help the school fulfil its Health and Safety obligations for off-site school visits by being involved in the planning and management of all educational visits. Safety management practice and procedures are ever-changing. The issues faced by School EVCs change over time and, although EVC training does not formally lapse, it is recommended good practice for EVCs to revalidate their award by attending update training. Many organisations include a three-year requirement for EVC revalidation. All OEAP Trainer delivered courses are inclusive of certification fees.
