In the 13 year history of the Countryside Educational Accreditation Scheme (managed by FACE on behalf of the Access To Farms partnership), a total of 2,323 people have attended training, with nearly 75% of them choosing to enter their work for an accreditation through OCN.
A long-term survey of farmers who have taken the course has just been carried out, and FACE estimates that CEVAS-trained farmers are enabling around half a million young people to visit a farm annually.
