District and Council Training - FAQ

What training do you need
to be a TRAINED LEADER?


Download this PDF which provides a complete list of training opportunities.
To be considered TRAINED, you must complete the Adult Basic Training for the
scout program you are providing leadership to. Most of the training at this
level can be completed online. There are 2 recurring trainings to take note
of:


1) Youth Protection MUST be taken every 2 years to keep your training status
current.

2) Leader Specifics MUST be retaken whenever you change to a significant leader
position. For example, moving from a Den Leader to Cub Master, or an Asst. Scoutmaster
to Scoutmaster or Committee Chairman.


Where can I go to get the
training I need?


All Online Training is found at The Scouting Online Learning Center (olc.scouting.org) You will need to setup an account if you don't already have one. You may be asked for your membership ID which is found on your membership card which should have been provided to you after you rechartered or joined scouting. If you do not have this number, that is OK, you can still take the training. Just be sure to print out your certificate and send a copy to your District Training Chairmen (Lenni Lenape is Eric Barnes)


Instructor Lead Training provided
by the all the districts in the council as well as Lenni Lenape can be found
at the council web site at www.cccbsa.org.

Reminder: Roundtable next Thursday!

Reminder: Lenni Lenape Roundtable meeting for September is next Thursday, September the 10th. We will be at Oakbourne Park at the Picnic pavilion and fire circle. Please arrive at or before 7:30 PM... (We decided against 7 PM, as the Commissioner staff needed to meet prior and many units are navigating popcorn pick-up.)

Our program will include a visit and "fireside chat" with the key three leadership of the Chester County Council! Our Scout Executive, Eric Magendantz will be joined by Russ Neubauer, Council President and Bill Taylor, Council Commissioner. We will also have promotion for Webelos Woods, the Good Citizen event in February and discussion of the December 5th charter renewal day!

As this is NOT the Steak-o-ree, there will be no food, but please do not let that dissuade you from attending a full program!

See you there!
