After you have attended a module you will need to be validated for your learning and knowledge. Who can validate you? Any suitably qualified Leader can assist in the validation process this may, for example, be by confirming observation of specific activity, confirming you have completed a task such as running a game. It is however your appointed Training Advisor who confirms that the evidence provided is sufficient and to the required standards.
