Apprenticeships

We have created bespoke apprenticeship pathways to enable schools and other educational organisations to develop their own specialist who support the school to embed outdoor education within their setting.

Through our popular apprenticeship programme, we will equip learners with everything they need to kickstart their career in the great outdoors. We will show learners the ropes and help them gain a whole host of qualifications to be able to deliver both land and water based activities to people looking to make the most of their time in the great outdoors.

• A chance to develop a career in an Outdoor Education or Outdoor Activity setting (at no cost).

Learners will have the unique opportunity to bolt on two National Governing Body (NGB) qualifications and the Level 3 Outdoor First Aid qualification, all funded as part of the apprenticeship.
