This is a simple required training that all adults need to complete within the first month of doing the application. Other training for each leadership position is required for participation in our unit. This is to make sure that we have well trained volunteers and that it doesn't become a dump off station for kids. When adult leaders are trained and engaged our unit flourishes. Your scouting leader will show you how to do any other training. Most training is about 45 minutes online.
Required Training
- Youth Protection training is required for all BSA registered volunteers and is a joining requirement.
- Youth Protection training must be taken every two years. If a volunteer’s Youth Protection training record is not current at the time of recharter, the volunteer will not be re-registered.
