As part of our requirements to provide social well being for youth in your community this training provides an opportunity to up-skill our members to ensure what is delivered to your community in terms of leadership, governance and/or programs in relation to youth issues are leading edge and provide the quality outputs required by your community.
The AGM/Conference is generally attended by approximately 150-200 people involved in youth work (including a large number of Police, Child Youth and Family, Truancy, Community and NGO representatives) from throughout New Zealand and Australia.
It is currently the only national youth at risk program training available annually throughout New Zealand and focuses on what is best practice in the delivery of these programs at both a local, national and international level.
Every 5 years we are obligated to our South Island branches to host the conference in the South Island and have been fortunate enough due to low season timing to obtain significant conference savings by hosting at this venue.
