Young Leader Awards
When a girl reaches 15 years old, she becomes a pioneer but however before she could be promoted as a Young Leader, she needs to follow a YLPT (Young Leader Preliminary Training) training and followed by assessment in captain for at least 6 months. Young Leader promotion is not automatic but it has been earned through passing the exam in training and completing all practicals in the company.
A pioneer can still follows the Pioneer Venture Programme even if she is not promoted as Young Leader. She will still earn the Achievement Awards (Triangles) as well as Service Awards as pioneer. However, she will not be able to get the braids awards which will lead to the National Highest Award - The Pioneer Pin.
After the promotion, Young Leader will follow a series of training such as RALT (recreational and Administrative Leadership Training) and GBSL (Girls' Brigade Leadership Training) to get more braids in order to complete the full programme for Young Leader. In order to qualify for the Pioneer Pin Award, a Young Leader MUST complete the Pioneer Venture Programme, attend and pass all trainings of Young Leaders, complete all the works and practicals requirement and attend an interview.
The difference between the Pioneer Venture Programme (Triangle Awards) and the Young Leader Training Programme (Braids Awards) is not only that the Young Leader Training Programme may lead to Pioneer Pin Award. The Braid Awards achieved through the Young Leader Training Programme could be won by the girl when she becomes an officer in the future. Whereas the Triangle Awards are just like other Achievement Awards, it cannot be worn by an officer. Should a girl unable to complete the Pioneer Pin Award, she will still stand to gain from the Young Leader Trainings.
