Australian Trainers taking on their first independent YAM Instructor Course

We are very proud to have completed our second Instructor Course in Sydney Australia from Nov 4- 9, 2018.

Myself, Nat, Olivia and Lisa were very impressed with the calibre of our 16 participants who despite coming from a large variety of professional backgrounds and expertise, obviously shared a passion for the wellbeing and mental health of youth. This was reflected in their willingness to share and engage openly in the YAM training process, their interesting questions and the effort and preparation they put into delivering their Opening Sessions of YAM.

Over the course of the week, we shared lots of laughs and poignant moments and observed the participants become a cohesive and supportive group.

We are very much looking forward to our next opportunity to train even more people to become YAM Instructors in Australia.
