Scouts Australia NSW Branch SIS‐10 Activity Qualifications

A Guide to the New Training System

SIS‐10 INTRODUCTION Scouts Australia has introduced a single pathway for Adventurous Activity qualifications. This move has been driven by many external changes including the new Federal WHS (Work Health & Safety) legislation, changes to Federal training regulators, and a decision to facilitate a national system of qualifications across all Branches of Scouts Australia. Previously, our internal “Scouting” qualifications were only recognised within the local Branch of the Scout Association. Now we are adopting the industry recognised accredited (VET) training program for outdoor recreation allowing members to gain useful qualifications and ensuring that Scouts Australia continues to exceed community expectations in the safety and quality of our adventurous activity training. All training courses will be delivered from the SIS‐10 training package. Courses will be run by NSW Branch and will cover all accredited skill sets. Courses will be administered like all other residential training courses by applying on an L1 Form. Workbooks will be issued for completion and full participation will be required. Opportunities for recognition of prior learning (skills recognition) is available to existing members with current Scouting qualifications to transfer to this new system. Leaders who hold existing qualifications external to Scouting will be able to have those qualifications recognised wherever they match the units and modules delivered by Scouts Australia. It is important to recognise that the new qualifications are very different to previous Scouting levels.

Levels One, Two, Three These are entry level qualifications. In many cases, these will be sufficient for an adult leader to take their youth members on basic activities (e.g. Level One Bushwalking or Level Two Canoeing). Guide Guide level qualifications would normally be held by dedicated Activity Leaders responsible for organising larger events within the Region or supervising section activities. (For example, Bushwalking Guides will normally be used as the Badge Examiner to supervise walks conducted within the Scout and Venturer Scout award schemes.) Guide level qualifications require completion of the “Adventurous Activity Leader Basic Sectional Techniques” and “Training of Trainer 1A” Residential Courses. Instructor Instructor level qualifications allow appointed adult members to teach and examine skills required for the activity. Instructor level qualifications require completion of the “Adventurous Activity Leader Advanced Sectional Techniques” and “Training of Trainer 1B” Weekend Residential Courses.

NSW Branch understands that there will be considerable challenges during the implementation of this new training program and we appreciate your patience as the new courses are prepared. The following pages show an outline of the entitlements of each qualification. For additional information, please contact your Region Commissioner (Activities) or Region Commissioner (Adult Training & Development).

Appendix

APPENDIX This appendix provides a complete overview of all SIS‐10 modules that are required for each qualification. The Common Core A & B1 and Training of Trainers 1A courses are required for all Guide qualifications. The Common Core B2 & Training of Trainers 1B courses are required for all Instructor qualifications. In all instances, the modules featured in lower qualifications are pre‐requisites for the higher qualification. As a Registered Training Organisation (RTO), Scouts Australia will recognise any units listed in the following pages that are completed outside of Scouting whenever a member can supply a Statement of Attainment from another RTO. Scouts Australia is also able to recognise electives completed outside of Scouting and we can organise a credit transfer where necessary. Details of Currency Guidelines and Log Book requirements are featured on the following pages. For additional information, please contact your Region Commissioner (Activities) or Region Commissioner (Adult Training & Development).

CURRENCY GUIDELINES To ensure that our activity leaders maintain currency in the skills they are qualified for, Scouts Australia has developed a set of currency guidelines that would be expected for members to follow for continued involvement in their area of skill. These guidelines are listed in the table below with additional detail listed for each activity area.

Level 1 Level 2 Guide Instructor 2 Activity Days 3 Activity Days 4 Guiding Days 2 Instructional Days (VET

Courses) 2 Guiding Days

1 Rescue Skills Day 1 Rescue Skills Day 1 Rescue Skills Day First Aid (HLT FA 301B)

and/or CPR Refresher (HLT CPR 201A)

First Aid (HLT FA 301B) and/or CPR Refresher (HLT CPR 201A)

First Aid (HLT FA 301B) and/or CPR Refresher (HLT CPR 201A)

1 Guide Development Day 1 Instructor Development Day

General A day is regarded as 6 hours effort and a half day as 3 hours effort. Two half day activities make up one full day activity. An instructional activity day must involve personal participation in the activity. Each of the five aspects of registration must be completed annually (i.e. instructional days, guide

activity days, rescue skills days, first aid and/or CPR currency, and instructor development days). No activity day can count more than once in any one activity area (i.e. a rescue skills practice day

cannot also be counted as an instructional day or guide activity day in the same activity area). At least two instructional days in every three years must be on level 2 courses in the activity area. Instructor development days may include conferences, workshops, training courses relating to

instructing skills in activity area, delivery of SOA Skills (Common Core) courses. A conference or workshop that relates to more than 1 activity area may be counted for each relevant

activity area.

Bushwalking Activities To maintain Bushwalking Instructor Level, at least 1 overnight walk must be completed each year in

difficult and trackless terrain or in an intermediate environment (Class 5 walking tracks). This may be instructional or guiding.

Navigation Rescue Skills Day could include: search and rescue, navigation, scenarios. In each three year period, a maximum of 1 day of Vertical Rescue Skills and a maximum of 1 day of

Aquatic Rescue Skills may be counted for Bushwalking.

CURRENCY GUIDELINES

Rock Activities To maintain Abseiling Instructor Level for Artificial and Natural surfaces, a total of 7 activity days

(minimum) per year required, with at least 3 days each year on each surface, and 3 instructional days (at least 1 on each surface), and 1 vertical rescue skills day (on either surface).

Vertical Rescue Skills Day could include: rope skills, self‐rescue, mechanical devices, rigging, scenarios. Vertical Rescue Skills Day can be on Artificial or Natural surfaces, but in each three year period at least

1 day should be on each surface registered. Vertical Rescue Skills Day each year can count for both Artificial and Natural if registered in each

surface.

Water Activities To maintain Instructor Level for Canoeing and Kayaking, a minimum of 7 activity days per year are

required (at least 3 days per year in each craft), and 3 instructional days (at least 1 in each craft), and 1 aquatic rescue skills day.

Aquatic Rescue Skills Day could include: swimming, lifesaving, deep water rescues, tows, scenarios. Aquatic Rescue Skills Day can be Canoeing or Kayaking, but in each three year period at least 1 day

should be in each craft registered. Aquatic Rescue Skills Day each year can count for both Canoeing and Kayaking if registered in each

craft.

Log Books All members are required to keep a log book that records their involvement in adventurous activities.

The log book must record details of date, location, type of activity, number of participants and your role at the activity. The name and contact details of another person at the activity that could verify your involvement should also be recorded for future reference.
