Coleader Year One provides balance of structure and flexibility. We provide 12 months of direction for your teaching and events, but Coleader’s flexibility allows you to easily replace any series with over 200 weeks of alternative teaching series and events from the Coleader library.
Coleader’s Year 1 Roadmap has five goals: (1) to help teenagers grow spiritually, (2) to provide a teaching plan that parents and church leadership feel confident in, (3) to enhance Biblical literacy by studying and learning from passages and books across the Bible, (4) to encourage students to engage with the Bible for themselves and spark vulnerable conversations with their leaders and parents, and (5) to provide comprehensive yet flexible teaching plan for the full school year.
The 12-month teaching curriculum centers on Old Testament, New Testament, Spiritual Growth, Relationships, and Hot Topics. Each weekly teaching centers on Scripture and moves to personal and practical application. All teaching is appropriate for 6-12th grade and is user-friendly for leaders.
And everything you need for every lesson is included (i.e. teaching script, outlines, small group discussion guides, games, presentations, transition videos, social media, music/song recommendations, etc.)
The 17 events included in Coleader Year One have been curated with a focus on 4 youth ministry pillars: Adult Volunteers, Parents, Serving Opportunities, and Special Events. Each seasonally specific event has been designed to make planning and execution effortless. Events include complete minute-by-minute programs, promotional graphics, presentations, games, videos, activities, shopping lists, pre-event planning tips, reproducible print pieces, etc.

How is getting access to this roadmap any different from what you get as a DYM Member?
DYM is a store full of resources created by different youth workers in the trenches of ministry. The experience you get from each resource on DYM is minimally standardized, but every resource vetted for quality and theological accuracy by a team of in the trenches youth workers.
Coleader’s Year 1 Roadmap is an annual curriculum that provides a scope and sequence and a consistent experience across all series and events included. Download teaching sample to see what we mean.

To start a Series, visit the Series page, and use your credits to copy the Series. You can then customize it to suit your specific ministry context.
What if a Series doesn't meet my ministry's needs?
No worries! If a particular Series doesn't align with your requirements, you can easily swap it out for another one from our Explore page. Tap "Magic Swap" on any Roadmap Series to see alternatives suggested by the Coleader team.
How does payment work for the Roadmap Series?
With Coleader, you only pay for the Series you actually use. This flexibility allows you to adapt everything according to your ministry's needs, ensuring cost-effectiveness.
Can I customize the Series to fit my ministry's unique needs?
Absolutely! The Roadmaps feature is fully adaptable, allowing you to customize each Series to best suit your ministry's context and requirements.
