Leader Training
The Australian Adult Leadership Program recognises prior learning, gives Leaders targeted training where required, and provides skill development in areas nominated by individuals. The program is designed to train Leaders in a self-paced series of modules, at home or at residential trainings, using up-to-date learning resources, supplied by Girl Guides WA.
The Leadership Program assists adult members to develop leadership skills and Guiding knowledge, and gives recognition to those who demonstrate their competence in the leadership role.
Training is available to women who nominate to participate, having gained Working With Children Check clearance. Recognition is linked to women who are prepared to make a personal commitment to the Guide Promise and Law.
The training program is modular, in four levels and completed sequentially. The first two modules, Guiding Awareness and Leadership Development, are completed by all Leaders.

Leadership Development | General introduction to leadership skills including communication needs of girls, personal development plan. |
Leadership Qualification | Leaders choose one of three strands depending on their intended role. |
