Trained leaders are essential to the success of our organization. 


Leader Position Training Information 

​

Honoring our commitment to delivering the best possible program to our youth, in Chester County Council we require all direct-contact adult leaders to complete basic training for their position.  Untrained direct-contact leaders lose the privilege of serving in that capacity and will be dropped from their unit charters when the unit renews its charter at the end of the year.

 

Your unit can see what training your leaders have completed by using the My.Scouting.org account of your committee chair, top unit leaders, or chartered organization representative (the unit "key three").

 

Every youth deserves a trained leader. Thank you for your service and for seeking the training opportunities that will help you better serve our Scouts.  For more information, contact the Training team at training@cccbsa.org

Direct contact leader positions are:

Below are step-by-step instructions on how to link your BSA ID# to your My.Scouting account.

This is also especially helpful at Recharter time.

1. Go to https://my.scouting.org and Sign in To My.Scouting with your username and password.
2. In the upper left corner, click on Menu, and select 'Legacy Web Tools' in the drop down menu, then click on 'Manage Member ID'.
3. Under 'Manage Member ID', select Chester County Council - West Chester, PA - #539 in the drop down 'Council Name' menu.
4. Enter BSA ID# (contact registrar@cccbsa.org if you do not know this) and click on the 'Add' button.
5. Click on the 'Save' button, then 'Close' and you are done.
