1.      What is the training cost?
The training cost is negotiable with your preferred training provider and is dependent on the training requirements.

2.      What does 70% of the training cost mean?
E.g. if the training for each student cost $120 for a 2D1N camp, the YLDG can fund up to 70% of $120, which is $84 per student.

3.      Is there a cap to the YLDG?
Each student/youth can receive grant amount of up to $300 per year.  It is capped at S$10,000 per school/institution/organisation per year (calendar year) whichever is lower.  

4.   What is the definition of 2nd-tier leaders that are non-school/organisation wide youth leaders?
It does not include: School Councillors, Prefects and students that hold official CCA roles such as EXCO members. It includes : others with the potential to lead but not holding any official positions and the entire class committee (as long as they do no hold other official school-wide title).

5.      Can the school/organisation engage other training providers other than those on the NYC recommended list?
Yes, you may choose to engage other training providers not included in NYC’s recommended list, pending NYC’s review and assessment of the capability and reliability of the trainer as well as the eligibility of the training content. Please contact us at least 6 weeks before the training commence if you wish to do so.

6.      Can the school/organisation decide the post-training activities for the students/youths?
Ideally the students/youths can have the opportunity to propose post-training activities of their choice. The schools/organisations may however provide some guidelines on the overall theme/type of activities.

7.      What are the types of post-training activities if the students/youths do not want to carry out a community project?
Depending on the topic of the training programme, the students/youths may plan and carry out activities other than community projects. E.g. students/youths may choose to participate in committees or workgroups in their community or take on the role of mentoring others.

8.      Can the students/youths implement an overseas community project?
The students/youths can plan for an overseas project but there must be a local community project component implemented prior to or after the overseas project.

9.      When must the post-training activities be implemented?
It is preferred that the students/youths embark on their post-training activities within 3 months after the training, so that they are better able to apply what they have learnt during the training in hands-on service to their community. However, depending on the nature of the post-training activities, the timeline for completion of the activities may vary.
