The World Youth Alliance (WYA) is a global non-profit and youth coalition composed of members from different walks of life who are committed to promoting and defending the dignity of the human person.
WYA’s Certified Training Program (CTP), formerly known as Track A, is the collection of texts that provide the philosophical underpinnings for the mission of WYA. It presents a summary of philosophical, historical, and modern day texts that focus on the dignity of the person and human rights. Those who complete the CTP are equipped to articulate and defend the principles of the dignity of the person within the public square. The program is free and is open to all members of the World Youth Alliance. It is a pre-requisite for participation in many of the programs of WYA (internships, specialized conferences, advocacy work).

Accepted applicants will undergo the training via a web-based platform and accomplish requirements by the given deadline. Trainees will regularly receive guidance and feedback from the CTP Instructor via the online platform, over e-mail, and/or pre-scheduled consultations (optional).
