Trail Standards, Professional Certification Framework & Curriculum, and Peak Body to Represent Trail Builders
The MTBA established a project working group at the 2015 Australian MTB Summit to investigate options for the following:
- National standards/guidelines for the design and construction of MTB trails;
- Development of a professional certification framework for trail builders and curriculum program;
- Establishment of a peak body to represent the Australian trail building industry.
The working group has completed option papers for each of the above areas/projects and are seeking feedback from the following constituents.
- Professional trail builders;
- Clubs, private promoters and trail care alliances;
- State and territory land management agencies; and
- the MTB community.
The working group is keen to receive feedback from you. Here is a link to the generic survey and the 3 option papers which form the basis for the survey questions. The option papers will need to be read prior to completing the survey. The survey closes 27 November.
