Our EVC training, Accredited by the Institute for Outdoor Learning, developed and overseen by OEAP Course Directors is delivered using a blended approach. The feedback we have received is this is the preferable method for our schools.
It enables:
attendees to save time travelling;
attendees to reduce their carbon impact;
schools to reduce costs on supply cover;
us to be flexible with cancellation or postponement due to last minute issues arising in schools;
attendees to undertake the course from the comfort of their home, office or classroom - no more cold Village Halls or Scout Huts.
