BASIC D.A.D. TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION PROGRAM -- PHASE II

Completion of Phase II is required BEFORE a person can be listed for certification as a DeMolay Advisor under the By-laws and Regulations of DeMolay International. Upon satisfactory completion of Phase II, a Certificate of Completion and a D.A.D. pin will be awarded to each trainee. While completion of this training is required, it does not make someone a DeMolay advisor. A person must be nominated by the sponsoring body, accepted by the Executive Officer, and pass the background check before they are certified as a local DeMolay Advisor.

This Basic Training Program consists of eight modules and takes four hours. It is our intention to make this training available at statewide events as time, interest, and trainer availability allow. Local and regional training can be arranged directly with members of the training staff.

The fee for the materials related to this phase of the training is $10.
