Every Scout Deserves a TRAINED Leader.
Adult Leaders in the BSA need to take training so that they are aware of the BSA's policies regarding safety and "Two Deep Leadership". The "Youth Protection Training" and "Boy Scout Leader Fast Start" should be taken by all Scouters that participate in scouting events. Both these courses are offered online.
Click HERE for the BSA online training. You will need to register on the BSA website and will need your BSA ID Number. If you do not have a BSA ID card and have filled out and turned in an application, the Scout Center can provide you with your ID Number (743-6125)
When a training course is completed, you will recieve a card. (you must print your own for the online training) Please forward a copy to Mr Stapleton so that it can be entered in Troopmaster. You can email the URL (web address) of the certificate for online training.
Many activities require adult leaders with specific training (Safe Swim, Safety Afloat, etc) Many of these courses are also offered online. If the we do not have enough leaders with the appropriate training for an event, we will have to cancel said event.
If you have completed any BSA training or are have up-to-date CPR certification, please make sure that it is listed in our records, as it makes planning campout easier when we know who is trained for what.
Scouters attending Summer Camp need to enroll in any of the training courses offered that they have not already taken. As the Troop pays the fee for Scouters at Summer Camp, they should "Repay" the Troop by taking training courses.
