Reminder as we go into the summer, and summer outdoor activities, if your youth protection training is going to expire soon, it's a good idea to renew before it does. Keeping youth SAFE in Cub scouting is priority #1. The programs have been updated this year. Please reach out with any questions.
Scouting America has released a refreshed version of Youth Protection Training (YPT), now titled Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT). The course is now live and is required for all new leaders. The new course is approximately 90 minutes, with a requirement to complete all lessons and score 80% or higher. If you have a current Youth protection Training, that certificate is still valid until it expies for you.
Youth protection is at the heart of everything we do. This updated training reinforces a culture of active supervision, situational awareness, and safety, ensuring we’re all equipped to help keep our Scouts safe. Head to my.scouting.org now to get started!
