Collaborative Efforts for the Outdoor Training Review

Outdoors NSW & ACT Season 2 Episode 39

Unlock the secrets of outdoor leadership as we explore the dynamic world of outdoor qualifications. Begin with a heartfelt acknowledgment of the traditional owners of the lands, inspired by Aunty Margaret's Welcome to Country, which beautifully brings Aboriginal art and culture to life. From the exciting announcement of outdoor leaders on immigration lists to the vibrant highlights of the mountain biking symposium, we promise an engaging journey through the multifaceted motivations, community spirit, and challenges faced in this vibrant sector.

Join us as we transition into a project-focused discussion on the review process of outdoor recreation qualifications, where our guest speaker emphasises the importance of aligning certificates and diplomas with the industry's current needs. With a technical committee and subject matter experts at the helm, we ensure that engaging industry feedback and enhancing career pathways remains a priority. Stay informed through project updates and consultations, and seize the opportunity to contribute your insights during this pivotal 12-month review period.

Delve into the evolving nature of Good Practice Guides and Adventure Activity Standards as we address the challenges of limited Registered Training Organisations and economic barriers to training. We'll shine a light on the role of SkillsIQ in advocating for inclusion in funding programs and stress the importance of collaboration and open dialogue. By equipping individuals with necessary skills and experiences, we aim to create a brighter future for outdoor education qualifications. Join the conversation and be part of shaping the industry's journey forward.
