GYA is the Official Standards Development Organization for gap year education in the U.S. as recognized by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. GYA advances the field of gap year education by collaboratively pioneering research on gap year benefits and trends, as well as providing professional development opportunities and resources for educators in gap year education and intersecting fields.
