Criterion Group is a US 501(c)(3) nonprofit training young Muslim leaders across the West

Youth Da'wah Leader Training

Our flagship programme - training young Muslim community and da'wah leaders who go on to build mentorship, brotherhood, sisterhood, and safe community environments for youth.

Format

Structured, tracked, and supported

Leaders access workshops delivered through video and audio, complete structured courses and modules, and are tracked through a progress system from start to finish. Each module is followed by a formal quiz or assessment to confirm learning before moving on.

Support Structure

Mentors, not just modules

Mentors are assigned to groups of leaders and track their progress directly. Leaders also get access to a wider community of trained leaders - a space to interact with each other, not just consume content passively.
