Getting Connected is a curriculum framework developed by the Young Adult Learners Partnership (YALP), a joint initiative between The NYA and the National Institute of Adult Continuing Education (NIACE). It comprises nine units, each consisting of a number of learning outcomes. Through undertaking activities associated with these, young people are encouraged to explore their values and beliefs, and enhance their knowledge, understanding, and their personal and social skills:
- a commitment to enhancement of self-esteem; - support for young people in the acquisition of key life skills; - support for young people in understanding and handling their emotions; - optional accreditation through the Oxford, Cambridge and RSA (OCR) Examinations Board; - sufficient flexibility to allow for the use of the framework to underpin existing curriculums, activities and projects; and - a comprehensive staff development programme.
