When you enroll in the NYAA Programme, you will be given a Record Book and an Award Diary.

As you complete each section of the programme, your supervisors, instructors or assessors endorse that you have completed that section in the Record Book. As you go through the programme, record your thoughts and reflections in the Award Diary.

Gold Award participants are required to prepare an additional report on your experiences in the NYAA Programme. This report is essentially an expansion of the Award Diary. Participants are free to include photographs, copies of certificates, etc. in the report.

When you have completed all the requirements for an Award, submit the Record Book and Award Diary (and report for Gold) to the NYAA Council for endorsement. Gold Award participants are required to attend an interview before receiving the Award.
