How to join
If you're interested in any of our programmes, you'll first need to join YSIS. If you're not sure whether YSIS is for you, join up anyway so that we can invite you to a training session and tell you all about it. You can decide whether to confirm your application after that.
What happens next?
Once you have completed the membership form, you will be given a choice of all the placements we're currently recruiting for, with a description of what each one involves. You need to apply for one of these, so we can invite you along to the right training session. Again, don't worry if you're not completely sure which one's for you - you can change your placement application after the training session.
Training sessions
Once you've applied for a placement, you will be invited to the next training session where we will tell you all about YSIS and you will have the opportunity to ask us about anything you're unsure of. If you decide to confirm your application, you will be assigned to a school and we'll tell you everything you need to know to get started.
