Youth Protection Training  (YPT) is required for all BSA registered volunteers. Anyone can take YPT on my.scouting.org, even if not a registered leader.

YPT must be taken every two years. If a volunteer’s Youth Protection training record is not current at the time of recharter, the volunteer will not be re-registered.

Scouting’s Journey to Excellence (JTE) is the BSA aspirational planning, performance and recognition program designed to encourage and reward the success of our units, districts, and councils. It is meant to encourage excellence and continuous improvement in providing a quality program at all levels. Due to the pandemic, unit criteria has been revised. See the 2021 unit scorecard. A completed JTE scorecard may be submitted to the council by emailing Michael Collins.
