Brigade Officers and Teachers who have successfully completed the train-the-trainers session conducted by the SPF:
Quiz Component:
For the quiz component, SPF provided the list of questions in Word document. It is up to teachers/officers to create the online quiz session (such as using Google Forms) in order to administer the quiz for their cadets. Alternatively, they may also choose to administer the quiz in hardcopy form, or to create a quiz on SLS for this.
Advocacy Component:
For the advocacy component, students will need to work on an advocacy project/activity to help raise awareness amongst family or friends. Examples of acceptable activities are provided in the training slides provided by SPF to the trainers after the respective train-the-sessions. As part of badge application, do share the completed work with us for review and also pictures of cadets in action where applicable.
