Cub Scout Leader Specific Training on-line!

I am glad to announce that the Cub Scout Job Specific training is now live online at MyScouting!
 
To access the training, go to www.scouting.org, click on MyScouting on the right end of the blue bar at the top, log in (or create an account if you do not already have one), click on E-Learning under the Training tab on the left, scroll down to the gray tabs and click on Cub.  This will show you a list of all the trainings that apply to Cub Scout leaders.
 
This addition will now give you three options to complete job specific training:
   1.  Complete job specific online.
   2.  Complete job specific at an in person scheduled class.
   3.  Request an in person training event for your entire pack.  What better way to get everyone on the same page?
 
Your District Training Team is committed to helping you become a 100% trained unit.
 
Don't forget that all leaders MUST complete Youth Protection training BEFORE they register or participate in activities with the youth.  As you recruit new leaders this fall, they must complete Youth Protection and attach a copy of the completion card or certificate to their membership application to get registered.  Also, every registered leader in your unit MUST have completed youth protection within the past two years to be rechartered in December or January, so make sure you don't have surprises when recharter time rolls around.
 
Every boy DESERVES a trained leader and, as a reminder, all Cub Scout Leaders much complete the following to be considered trained:
     Fast Start Training for their registered position
     Youth Protection Training
     Job Specific Training for their registered position
     This is Scouting
