The new Safeguarding Youth Training went live Friday, May 16. Scouters are encouraged to take the new 90-minute training now, but they will be required to take the training when their current Youth Protection Training expires. It’s designed to replace Youth Protection Training and adds a section on S.A.F.E. Scouting. The new SYT training is good for one year. To renew, you'll need to review a 10-15 minute video and take the refresher test. If you pass with an 80 percent or above, you've recertified. If not, then you will take the entire SYT module. This online training is taken at https://my.scouting.org/
It hasn't been a year since we met our fellow Scouts from around the world at the World Jamboree. While they showed us how much fun they can have, this reminds me how dynamic they are too.
