New on the www.MyScouting.org site is a “Training Verification”feature. Enter MyScouting using your user name and password. On the left hand menu, click on “Training Verification.” You may select “Youth Protection Training” or “All [[Other]]Training.” These two sites will bring up your recent personal training history, including online as well as group training sessions.

Note that “All Training” does not include your Youth Protection training record, which is in a separate file.It is important to check your training history because, with the new Youth Protection training requirements, you cannot be rechartered if your Youth Protection training was taken more than two years ago.

Training is an important part of learning to become an effective leader. The Scouting position you hold will be easier once you know the skills necessary to provide a quality program to today's youth. Scouts and leaders are all strongly encouraged to take advantage of every training opportunity.

The national BSA Online Learning Center provides a wide variety of training opportunities. A log-in is required; registered members of the BSA may provide their member numbers (as part of their user profile) to receive credit. There are also many other supplemental training opportunities that provide orientation beyond the basic trainings offered.
