Youth Achievement Award - Family support directory

When support is available: Youth Achievement Awards (YAA) are nationally recognised awards in Scotland that help young people get credit for their personal learning and achievements.

The awards are officially recognised by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA) and appear on the Scottish Qualifications Certificate (SQC), along with school and college qualifications. YAAs are rated on the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) at levels 4 to 7, offering a clear path for young people to progress.
Who qualifies: 14 years and above
