A leadership development programme for young people

The All-Round Leadership Learning System (ARLLS), is a comprehensive leadership development programme for young people, delivered online through partnerships with schools, colleges, universities, employers and youth organisations. The ARLLS programme incorporates blended learning and active learning methods to deliver fresh and engaging leadership training to young people – at a time when they are most ready to learn.

Why youth leadership skills matter

Equipping young people with leadership skills is a strategic investment in their future success and the collective wellbeing of their communities. Our program is affordable, scalable and requires minimal disruption to your existing training programmes, and provides clear data on its benefits.

Practical – Essential leadership skills, including communication, teamwork, problem-solving, critical thinking, and decision-making, are both highly valued by employers and crucial for professional success.

Cost effective – Our affordable and scalable solution comes with the necessary program materials, facilitator training, and ongoing support to ensure successful implementation.

Engaging – Our collaborative learning environment encourages peer-to-peer interaction and idea exchange, inspiring learners to take the initiative and become active participants in their learning journey.

Impactful – Our graduates distinguish themselves with a demonstrably solid foundation in leadership skills, reporting increased confidence, adaptability, and critical thinking abilities which enables them to thrive in competitive job markets.

Dynamic leadership training for future leaders

Each module is made up of 4 components:

  • Online lesson to learn at their own pace, revisit key concepts and access materials anytime, anywhere
  • Experiential activity that allows young people to learn from each others’ real-life experiences
  • Facilitated workshop where learners can practise communication skills, participate in group discussions, and tackle simulated leadership challenges, fostering deeper understanding and practical application of leadership principles.
  • Individual reflection ensuring that concepts are not just committed to memory but truly internalised.

Built on evidenced research and proven outcomes

We have been using ARLLS in youth leadership programmes for 15 years, during which time we have evolved the curriculum in line with sound academic research alongside our own observations. We have found that our learners:

  • improved their employability and energised their workplaces
  • expanded their networks with lasting friendships that enabled them to connect and lead together
  • sharpened their leadership abilities
  • achieved a real competitive edge when taking ARLLS alongside other educational programmes.
