Strap in for a deep dive into the world of outdoor education as we welcome Andy and Sam from the Outdoor Education Innovation Hub (OEIH). Formed in 2022, the OEIH is on a mission to make waves in how training and pathways are offered in the outdoor education sector. Expect a comprehensive exploration of the gaps within existing training programs and the ingenious ways the hub is filling them, including the introduction of the Activity Group Skill Micro Credentials. 

As our chat unfolds, the conversation turns to the quality of education across the board in the outdoor sector. You'll be fascinated as we shed light on the skill set approach which is revolutionizing education quality and the robust delivery and assessment process governed by ASQA and the RTOs. Get a front-row view into the promising outcomes of the OEIH's research project and the riveting feedback from participants who have completed the courses.

As we wrap up, we tackle the vital role of outdoor education advocacy and its far-reaching implications on community well-being. Get ready to radically rethink your perspective on outdoor education. We passionately delve into the significance of health and wellness in our communities and society – a sentiment echoed for over 2000 years. Finally, we circle back to the OEIH, discussing its potential to revolutionize training and pathways for people in the outdoor education industry.
