Log the work you actually do.
Start with the record that fits the experience. There is no daily logging routine to keep up with.
Program / Expedition
The overall camp, expedition or course—especially when it spans several days or contains multiple sessions.
School camps, paddling or trekking expeditions, outdoor education programs and multi-day courses.
The whole experience. The detail you need.
A Program records the overall experience. Link Sessions when you want more detail about particular days or activities.
Linked Sessions add detail without counting the same experience twice in your career totals.
You can save the Program first and add Sessions later.
- ↳ Day 1 · Paddling — Session
- ↳ Day 2 · Paddling — Session
- ↳ Day 3 · Hiking — Session
Example · Add as much detail as you need.
Keep one career record across jobs and seasons.
A day of instruction, a season at an outdoor centre, an expedition overseas. Keep your experience together, with the activity details, role and supporting evidence that make it useful later.
