The choice to work with school-age youth is one of the most important career decisions that a
person can make. A school-age/youth development professional is an extraordinary individual who
helps to guide youth to master skills, develop relationships, grow in independence, and move to
new levels of thinking and understanding about themselves and the world.
The Michigan School-Age/Youth Development Certificate supports quality programs for school-age
youth by providing standards for training, evaluation, and recognition of the first step in
process; it is the foundation for the Michigan School-Age/Youth Development Credential.
