As outdoor organisations we know we should strive for responsible delivery of activities and acknowledge we have a moral obligation to continually evaluate our practices.

We should ask ourselves:

How can we enhance our incident prevention measures?
How can we strengthen our safety culture?
How do we ensure cultural heritage and environmental compliance?
How can we make our risk management procedures more effective?

The Australian Adventure Activity Standard and associated Good Practice Guides (Aust AAS) help organisations address these issues.

The Good Practice Outdoors program aims to help organisations implement the Aust AAS by making the process more user-friendly.

Module 1 of the program consists of 4 component parts:

Program participants will be given the tool and shown how to use it in a virtual classroom.
To reinforce their learnings, participants will then be asked to go back to their workplace and start to apply their learnings by commencing their organisation’s Good Practice Outdoors journey.
Program participants will have access to optional follow-up sessions via weekly virtual classroom sessions that will allow them to seek clarification and ask any questions they may have about the implementation of the GPO assessment tool or the Aus AAS.
At the four-week mark, program participants will be asked to give their feedback on the GPO program, the GPO assessment tool and the Aus AAS in general.
