The tables below is designed to give an indication of the potential learning in the Young Leaders’ Scheme that relates to objectives in the Adult Training Scheme.

It's important to bear in mind that completion of the Young Leaders’ Scheme cannot be used as automatic validation for any module, but it should give an indication of the prior learning that may have been gained and should be taken into consideration when agreeing the Personal Learning Plan.

The participant must show how their knowledge is applicable to their new role and validate their modules in the same way as all other learners.
