Accredited Resources
Resource accreditation is open to all organisation members of IOL
We welcome applications for all types of resource that include an instruction guide, booklet or scheme of work with suggestions for use in outdoor learning. IOL is not seeking to accredit published books. We will accredit schemes, products, guides, workbooks and other resources relevant to outdoor learning professionals.
Resource accreditation helps IOL to support high-quality outdoor learning. It can be in addition to, or independent of, other accreditations.
All accredited resources must meet each the resource accreditation quality criteria.
