Youth Protection Training
- Effective June 1, 2010
Youth Protection
training is required for all registered
volunteers.
New leaders are
required to take Youth Protection
training before they submit an
application for registration. The
certificate of completion for this
training must be submitted at the time
application is made and before volunteer
service with youth begins.
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 reregistered.
To ensure these policies
are fully implemented, please take the
following steps:
If you have not
taken Youth Protection training within
the past two years, please log on to
MyScouting and take the training. Be
sure to have your member ID number. The
number can be found on your Boy Scouts
of America membership card.
If you do not know
your member ID number, contact your unit
leader or committee chairman. Your
council can also assist.
A person does not
have to be a registered volunteer or
have an ID number to take Youth
Protection training. To take the
training, log in to MyScouting and
create an account. From the MyScouting
portal, click on E-Learning and take the
Youth Protection training. Upon
completion, print a certificate and
submit it with an application or submit
to the unit leader for processing at the
local council.
If you have taken
Youth Protection training online but did
not input your member ID number, please
log on to MyScouting and input your
member ID in the My Profile section so
the training will be linked to your
records.
If you have taken
Youth Protection training within the
past two years but did not take the
course online, log on to MyScouting to
ensure your records are up-to-date, or
contact your council for verification
that your Youth Protection training
records are accurate.
Finally, please share
these important changes with other
Scouters.
Once you
are registered as a BSA leader, you will
receive a membership id number. Use this
number to access your MyScouting.org account
so that the training sessions that you
complete will automatically be sent to your
records with Council.
Fast Start Training -
This is the video or on-line training every new leader take right after
they sign up. Need a quick briefing on what
your Scouting job is all about? You can
visit an online version of Fast Start
Training for a quick overview of the either
program and information about your Cub
Scout, Boy Scout, or Venturer Leader job.
This is Scouting -
“This Is Scouting”
replaces New Leader
Essentials and provides an overview
of the Scouting organization, including
history, values, programs, Youth Protection,
community involvement, and training. The
module consists of six video sections, each
followed by a brief quiz.
Safe Swim Defense & Safety
Afloat - Before a BSA group may
engage in swimming activities of any kind, a
minimum of one adult leader must complete
Safe Swim Defense & Safety Afloat Training,
have a commitment card with
them, and agree to use the eight defenses in
this plan. These two training courses are
now available online.
