I was involved with Sydney Uni Rockclimbing & Mountaineering Club (SURMC) around the early '00s when UNSW (I think?) had a disastrous canyoning trip where someone froze to death under a waterfall. We ended up needing to set up a formal qualification system to clearly define what skill level is required for certain roles, and be able to prove that people have been assessed. But it was really just formalising and documenting things we were already doing. Probably a good thing really. It would be interesting to see what insurance companies would say if you went to them and showed you have these systems in place already. It can't really be much different to aviation or rifle clubs.
