On Line Training Opportunities Introduction Welcome to the adventure of Scouting and congratulations on having been selected to serve as a leader and role model for our youth. Scouting is an excellent program to watch youth grow into responsible adults. You will meet a lot of other adult volunteers that are just as concerned as you are about the future of our youth. New in the fall of 2003 is the opportunity for new leaders to take orientation training. Click on the training course you wish to take and follow the instructions. Be sure to complete and submit the attendance information at the completion of the session. Training opportunities on line include: New Leader Essentials - is designed for all new volunteers and provides the basics of the Scouting programs, the age appropriateness of those programs, and our values and methods. Once taken, this course does not have to be repeated. This course is offered at the Council and District level and can also be scheduled for an individual unit by contacting your District Training Chairman. This training is also available on line.
