Troop 193 strives to have all the adult leadership up to date in their training.  Starting in 2011, BSA requires that, to be registered adult leader, you must complete Youth Protection Training.  However, You need not be a registered member or have a member ID to take Youth Protection Training.

To find the Youth Protection Training go to MyScouting.org.


Along with Youth Protection Training, there are other on-line training  opportunities at MyScouting.org that can strengthen us as a troop.  There are many that help us have safer outings with the boys, but some will help us to achieve a higher rating at our annual evauation acording to the new Journey to Excellence program:

(taken from the leadership portion to JTE)

Trained leadership: Have a trained and engaged troop committee.

Bronze:

Have a Scoutmaster, an assistant Scoutmaster, and a committee with at least three members. The entire committee needs to completed This Is Scouting, Fast Start training, and Youth Protection training or, if new leaders, within three months of joining. (Those three are available on-line at the link above)

Silver:

Bronze level, plus all must have completed Leader-Specific Training (For commitee members, this mean taking Troop Committee Challenge.  For Scoutmasters this is Scoutmaster Specific, which will be through the council) or, if new leaders, within six months of joining.

Gold:

Silver level, plus hold youth officer elections and installation before November 15. (We're good on this one!!)

After completing any training, please print out the certificate at the end of the course and give a copy to either Bob Grove or Cindy Grove
