Please also note the following training updates:
- Unfortunately this year we will not be running an SRT 2 course.
- The Training Officer will reach out to all current valid CL1 and CL2 holders and invite them to the re-validation day, but please add the date above to your calendars. If leaders are unable to attend re-validation, they can attend the course appropriate to their leadership level as an observer to re-validate. If neither is possible then they’ll have to do an assessment to stay current, otherwise they will be removed from the list of current CL1/CL2 leaders on the website.
- We are making changes to our Recognition of Prior Learning process and will now only accept existing certifications for recognition. As an example: in contrast to previous years, attendance at a Cave Skills course will now be a hard requirement for attending a Cave Leader 1 course.
