UNIT STANDARDS

We can offer unit standards currently in two ways:

  • If you have the accreditation in-house as part of your organisation we can provide the practical training and instructional expertise and safety system for you. You as the organisation will then do the administrative reporting and workbooks with the students to ensure they meet the unit. These units could be based during just one day or over multiple sessions. Common units we offer are rafting, kayaking, low/high ropes, and rock climbing/abseiling units and we can be flexible at working in with you to meet your group’s needs.
  • Within the scope of our Hillary Outdoor’s Partnership we can offer unit standards as part of their 5 day or 5 week adventure, leadership and immersion programmes. A maximum for a standard 5 day programme is up to two units and will require prior teaching and learning to occur at school. Below is an overview of what we can offer as part of a Hillary Programme.
