Course Description
The Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA) Participant Course is a seven-hour course that is available in a self-directed online format through the Justice Learning Centre web site. The purpose of this alternate delivery course is to provide a training option for people who are unable to attend face-to-face course training sessions. The same course content presented in the face-to-face course is presented through the alternate delivery course. Course activities have been modified to ensure a reasonable substitution of learning opportunities and consistent evaluation mechanisms for both course delivery formats.
