The Committee consists of individuals with expertise, knowledge and experience of the adventure activities sector. AAIAC members are also understood as coming from broadly defined ‘constituencies’ with which they are expected to keep in touch, and of whose concerns and interests they are expected to be aware.
In accordance with the constitution, nominations are now invited for membership of the Committee (members are normally appointed for a period of three years: one-third of the members stand down each year – and may, if eligible, be re-nominated). .
Nominees should have a knowledge and understanding of safety and good practice in adventure activities, whilst having a commitment to the AAIAC and its objectives. Committee members will need to be able to read, understand and comment on documentation including relevant consultations, legislation and good practice guidance. Members will be encouraged to participate in the AAIAC working groups and contribute to the development of good practice guidance. Nominees should be able to participate constructively in open discussions, while respecting the views and roles of members and observers.
