PROMOTING STANDARDS IN SAFETY AND QUALITY ON OVERSEAS TRIPS 

The Expedition Providers Association is the only awarding body of the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom’s Quality Badge (LOtC QB) for overseas expeditions. 

To be a full member represents, by independent inspection, proof of Quality and Safety across the  business. This differs and is justifiably more robust than all other LOtC QB accreditations. 

EPA membership is made up of UK-based expedition providers catering for young adults under 25 in full-time education. 

By joining EPA, members become part of a network of industry professionals available for consultation on a wide range of issues.

Choosing the correct supplier for your overseas expedition can be a daunting prospect. That's why EPA have created a simple checklist of the more important questions you should be asking of any potential organisation.
