Our approach · the standard

Built on ISO 31031.

ISO 31031 is the international standard for managing risk on trips for young people. Ildána is built around it, so doing the work and proving the work become the same thing.

    The eight domains are Ildána's own way of organising the work in line with ISO 31031, not the standard's clause numbering. Ildána supports working in line with the standard; it doesn't certify a school.

    Our story · the name
    PlannerGuideNurseGuardianNavigatorInterpreterRecord-keeperAll of them

    In Irish myth, Lugh arrived at the gates of Tara and was asked what art he practised. He named one after another: builder, smith, harper, healer. The court had a master of each. None had someone who held them all. They let him in, and called him Samildánach, the many-skilled.

    Our mark borrows the look of letters cut along a line, the way the oldest inscriptions were carved, and sets them on the horizon every trip heads towards.

    A school trip asks the same of a teacher. Ildána holds the other arts, so they can give their full attention to the one that matters: the children in front of them.
