Youth Protection Training
Scouting is all about helping young people lead productive,
value driven lives. However, the most important thing
we do as adult leaders is not to teach them to tie a
knot or shoot a bow and arrow. The most important thing
we do is making sure while they are doing scouting they
remain safe. Safe from injury, safe from serious accident,
and yes safe from others who presence we need to protect
our children from. Scouting for many years as offered
Youth Protection Training to all adult leaders as well
as parents and others who find themselves in leadership
roles with these precious young people. A new version
of Youth Protection Training is available on line at
our Council website ( www.bsa-selacouncil.org
) and can be found by going to the training tab
and then clicking youth protection training. If you
have never completed the training, make a commitment
to get in completed this month. If it’s been over
a year since you last took the training, it might be
well to go through it again as a refresher. While completing
of the course should automatically update your training
record, some web browsers are not as compatible with
the training as others. We recommend that whenever you
complete an online training course that you shoot an
email to sela@bsamail.org indicating your name, unit
number and the course that you completed so we can make
sure your training record is up to date.
