The National Navigation Award Scheme (NNAS) was launched at the Royal Institute of Navigation in 1994. The Scheme is a personal performance, non-competitive, incentive scheme for all ages to learn navigation skills and gain confidence to get out and enjoy the countryside. ==Award Categories== The scheme operates both an adult and junior series of awards, each series has 3 levels of awards. The awards are aimed at all age groups and abilities. All NNAS courses include advice and information about relevant safety and access issues when walking in the countryside. In addition, an understanding of relevant conservation and environmental issues and awareness of our impacts all form part of each course. The focus of the Young Navigator Star Awards is to encourage exploration and journeying in local areas using simple maps such as street maps, pictorial park maps and orienteering maps. There is a gradual learning progression via One Star (bronze), Two Star (silver) and Three Star (gold) levels with certificates and badges available for achieving candidates. The Young Navigator Star courses are fantastic for youngsters to actively learn outside the classroom, and the Gold level is often used as a lead-in for the Duke of Edinburgh Bronze award. The NNAS is recognised by many outdoor and outdoor training related organisations as a sound and encouraging training system to learn the skills of land based navigation and gain confidence in planning your own outdoor journeys. Support comes from SportsLeader UK British Orienteering, the Royal Institute of Navigation the Mountain Leader Training Board UK Ramblers UK Institute of Outdoor Learning Air Cadets and many more The NNAS is sponsored by Harvey Maps 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National Navigation Award Scheme」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
