Getting Started This is the name given to the mandatory training to help get you up and running in your specific role. 4 of these are common to all roles in the Group with a 5th dependent on your chosen path in Scouting.
Leader Training You can access online learning for modules applicable to those adults helping with sections who are required to gain their wood badge. Sectional Assistants and general helpers are able to take these modules to help with their understanding of the running of a section.
Mandatory Ongoing The safety and welfare of those involved with Scouting is our number 1 priority. It is vital that we remain up to date with the Safeguarding and Safety regulations. Therefore we are required to renew these modules every 3 years.
Ongoing Learning Ongoing learning is about us all increasing our knowledge, understanding and skills throughout our time in Scouting. This could cover a range of things with the only proviso being that the learning we undertake can be usefully employed in our Scouting role.
