With the change in WHS (Works Health & Safety) legislation, NSW made a decision to move from its previous internal training to an externally recognised accredited training, to better cover the association and provide its members with recognised training and qualifications. The benefit of the move to accredited Adventurous Activities Training is to gain nationally recognised qualifications that are consistent across all States. We currently offer Certificate II, III, & IV in Outdoor Recreation.
