OCN Forest Schools Level 4

Our latest OCN level 4 course is now underway. We have seen an upsurge in enquiries from Local Authorities interested in training staff through our Level 4 program. And we are delighted that two local authorities have staff on the level 4 ready to go back and deliver sustainable Forest Schools training in house after they have completed their training.



Level 4 practitioners deliver OCN Forest Schools levels 1-3 within their own settings. Many councils are interested in training level 4 practitioners to deliver the courses, not only because they will have all the registration, moderation and course materials provided but so there is a quality assurance process and a level of consistency and quality present throughout the training.


If you are a level 3 practitioners and you are interested in starting delivering your own Forest Schools training courses then please get in touch for more information.
