Becoming a Trained Leader

Three Steps to Becoming a Trained Leader

STEP ONE: SET UP A MY.SCOUTING ACCOUNT

Visit My.Scouting and create an account. Once you have an account you can access online training.

STEP TWO: TAKE SAFEGUARDING YOUTH TRAINING

Scouting America places the greatest importance on creating the most secure environment possible for our youth members.

STEP THREE: POSITION-SPECIFIC TRAINING

Visit the Scouting America Learn Center. Select your position and a learning plan will be created for you. The plan includes modules that are designed to allow you to complete them at your own pace.

In-person courses are also available throughout the year.

Position Training

Leaders who complete Safeguarding Youth Training and Position Specific-Training earn the right to wear the trained patch on the left sleeve of their uniform, beneath the patch representing the position for which they are trained.
