Adult Training

BSA Learn Center

Do you need to take Youth Protection Training (YPT)? Do you need to take your Cub Scout Leader Training? All of this and more can be done while visiting one website!

BSA Learn Center
Use your membership number on your ID card to sign in. If you are new to Scouting and do not have a membership number, create a new user name and password. Every time you complete a training session, print out the certificate provided and turn in to your Unit Leader, Committee Chairman or Council service center.

Hazardous Weather Training
Many volunteers will show up as not trained and that is because this past April National made Hazardous Weather Training a requirement for direct contact leaders. They may take this training online at my.scouting.org or take one of the council training. More dates will be coming out for more opportunities to take this training.BSA Learn Center
