Mission Statement<\/h2><\/div>

The Outdoor Early Learning Association\u2019s mission is to support changes to BC licensing standards for Early Years Outdoor Learning Programs, while providing services for all BC outdoor educators in offering support, resources and professional development training.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Vision<\/h2><\/div>

To assist in accelerating BC licensing standards to include Early Years Outdoor Learning Programs while being a nature-based resource hub for all in need.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

Why Have OELA?<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Because BC needs a central body of nature-based organizers that will provide experienced support and resources to the provincial licensing body in moving the standard practice to allow and welcome Early Years Nature Education and Outdoor Learning Programs that do not operate with an indoor facility.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
