Definition of Key Terms

Students and youth: People under the age of 25 or those enrolled in educational institutions, including post-secondary institutions.

Education or Training: may be one-time or an on-going series; cannot just be distribution of pamphlets or information available on a web-site; should have learning objectives; may be in person or through a web-based interface.

How to Calculate Measure/Collect Data

Count of each individual student/youth participating in the training.  Some students/youth may attend multiple trainings but they should only be counted once.  If providing the training through the classroom training, should count the students/youth present not just those enrolled.  If providing the training through a school assembly, get the best estimate from school officials of the number in attendance.
