Having colleagues appropriately trained is the best way to ensure and evidence that they are developing their competence to lead educational visits. This course grew from EVC training and aims to provide an overview of the knowledge and skills necessary to plan and run an educational visit.

VL training is a two part course.

Part 1 – Is a theoretical course covering all the elements required to equip staff to lead visits. Part 2 – Looks at the complexities and range of visits delivered by schools and other establishments. It is a practical course enhanced by delivery in outdoor settings.

For colleagues in a Voyage Education Partnership academy this course is mandatory for those that are designated as the visit leader for Category B and Category C visits.

The course fee (£95 for colleagues from the Voyage Education Partnership and £125 for other schools) includes refreshments and a buffet lunch.

This course will be delivered by an OEAP Course Director.
