Find out about the training for your role or learn how you can help others through their training programme. Volunteers are the heart of the Scouts and we want you to get every bit as much out of it as you put in.
We know that Scouting is not only about young people, but also about the development of our volunteers. To support Scout volunteers, you are required to complete a training programme made up of mandatory, role-specific, and ongoing learning.
The training programme builds on your existing skills and knowledge and some elements count towards externally-recognised awards.
Follow these three easy steps to get started with your training journey.
Training modules that you need to complete depending on the volunteer role that you are taking on. To find out the modules you need, visit Appointments: Table 2 which lists all of our roles and their training requirements.
We know that many Scout volunteers have prior learning which they can apply to their Scouts role.
