Social and technological changes lead us to rethink whether leisure and free time training is adapted to current needs. The objectives of this research paper are (1) to know the evaluations of professional agents and young people regarding the transversal contents that are taught in the leisure and free time monitor courses, and (2) to evaluate the significance of the relationships that are established between the transversal contents from the different groups consulted. Based on a questionnaire addressed to 1049 people that includes management / technical teams of leisure and free time schools, responsible for training and coordination, students, linked to 25 free time schools, and young people from 11 autonomous communities in Spain. A correlational study was carried out through contingency tables, using the Chi-Square and Somers D statistics. As result, it is evident that the agents value the training proposal as consolidated and accepted, there is a coherence between the contents, the expectations of the students, and the people involved, therefore this has allowed reflecting and proposing updates of the transversal contents, as well as suggesting keeping the transversal contents focused on the current youth policies, as well as on their needs.
