This module aims to ensure that Young Leaders have the understanding and skills to take action in an emergency situation. Training in emergency response is becoming an essential requirement for many jobs and courses. These skills are invaluable for Young Leaders. That’s why training in emergency aid is part of the Scheme. Given the wide availability of training courses in first and emergency aid, Young Leaders complete this module by attending a recognised training course.
