Who should deliver the modules?

Although the ESLYLs coordinate the training themselves, modules can be delivered by the ESYLs themselves, or by someone with relevant experience, skills, and knowledge.

For some modules you may wish to invite subject-matter experts from your District, County/Region or Area to deliver some or all of the modules, or to co-facilitate. For example, you may wish to invite a Safeguarding Awareness Coordinator to support elements of Module A, or a Youth Commissioner to support Module I.

Delivering training to ESYLs uses a different skillset to delivering training to adult volunteers. Bear this in mind when considering who might be best suited to deliver each session. Adults do not need to have completed training modules from the Adult Training Scheme in order to deliver the ESYL training.
