Accredited Award Providers (AAPs)
COVID-19 UPDATE - if you have a booking with one of our AAPs, please check directly on their website for an update on their provision of services. Mountain Safety Council (MSC) have set up this COVID19Outdoors site for checking what activities are allowed in the current environment.
The AAPs on this page are registered with The Award to deliver programmes which meet the Award requirements as per the International Handbook.
AAPs are organisations, both commercial and charitable, whose opportunities have been approved by The Award as meeting our sectional conditions and can count towards the achievement of an Award. AAPs are usually able to provide a section in its entirety, including training, supervision, assessment and reports on the Online Record Book (ORB).
Adventurous Journey AAPs
It is the participants responsibility to ensure they have completed training before they attend a Practice Journey, if training is not provided by the AAP, and supply evidence of this to their Award Leader and AAP.
The participant then needs to make sure they have entered their practice journey on the ORB and submitted it to their Award Leader for approval well in advance of attending a Practice Journey. No journeys should be undertaken without approval from your Award Leader.
The Award Leader will check training has been completed before approving any Adventurous Journey.
