Laying Down the Law training now available online

Our Laying Down the Law training program is now available in online format, accessible to individuals or groups across Queensland.

You can view the course and enroll here.

The training is specially designed for those who are working or volunteering with young people in Queensland.

The course will educate you on the most important laws affecting youth workers and what your responsibilities are. Topics include consent, confidentiality, negligence, capacity/competency, child protection system, police powers, Childrens Court, and police interviews.

In the youth work space there are often times where the law is not black and white. This course will equip you with a decision-making framework that will allow you to make decisions that are child centred, human rights compliant, and consistent with the law.

YAC has over 40 years experience in advocacy, legal, and social support for young people.
