The People Developers 2009
Here is an update of how the Spring of 2009 shaped up....
January, February and March 2009
The People Developers have had a good start to 2009 with continued engagement with the Institute for Outdoor Learning (IOL) and the project management of the Registered Practitioner of the Institute for Outdoor Learning (RPIOL) scheme. This accreditated scheme provides a map of good practice showing path towards integrated professionalism, a framework which can be integrated with appraisals/staff development, evidence of experience of session leadership and an integrated stepping stone towards APIOL - which is the IOL's high level of professional accreditation. RPIOL is applicable across all areas of outdoor learning; it increases flexibility and career options.

Solvitas Perambulum
The popular Walk and Talk programme which has been used by The People Developers for many years has gone through a redesign process. The Romans coined the phrase ‘solvitas perambulum’, which means ‘solve it as you walk’. They believed that the combination of fresh air, removing themselves physically from the source of the problem, light physical exercise and creative inspiration from nature worked wonders if they needed to sort through issues in their minds.
