The expedition leadership and management NOS are a suite of occupational standards newly created for the rapidly growing expeditions sub-sector.
They have been developed with sector experts, including the Young Explorers’ Trust and the Royal Geographic Society, and are aimed at all expedition leaders and managers, both within the UK and abroad.
An introductory document is also available for download to complement the new suite; this will help to plant some ideas about using NOS, and will assist those new to occupational standards to maximise the value of the benefits available.
The units may be downloaded individually below or as a full suite (zip) or full suite (pdf).
