Methods of instruction Our training courses are delivered through six conferences per year at Brunel Manor in Torquay. The whole SWYM team (around 90 people) gathers together for four days. Our key ethos in training is that whilst it is really important to know the theory, the majority of learning comes through practically doing it. As a result, all SWYM trainees are placed with a carefully chosen placement, where you will be doing practical youth or children’s work for the majority of your time.
