Membership
Full Members
Each Local Authority in Scotland is asked to nominate a representative or two to join the Scottish Advisory Panel for Outdoor Education. Historically the Panel was made up of the ‘Advisors in Outdoor Education’ but the face of Outdoor Education in Scotland has changed and now the Panel consists of a diverse range of job remits from across different services.
Each Local Authority can select up to two of the most appropriate individuals who can best support and influence the main aims of the Panel. These individuals have a responsibility to disseminate information to others within their LA. Each LA has one vote.
You can search for your LA representative here.
