  1. Foundations Pathway –a prerequisite for all other pathways, and anyone wanting to know what DofE is about (in English and Welsh)
  2. Delivering the DofE Pathway – for Managers, Leaders and those supporting DofE programmes
  3. Expedition Assessor and Supervisor Pathway – for those who will be assessing or supervising DofE Expeditions
  4. Managers Pathway – for all DofE Managers, and any Administrators or Co-ordinators wishing to access the learning.
