Scoutbook believes every Scout deserves a trained leader. If you ever wondered if you are fully trained your gonna love our new My Training section of Scoutbook.

Scoutbook takes the guesswork out of training by analysing all your current positions in Scouting then displays a summary of which courses you should take to be fully trained.

If any of the courses are about to expire a yellow checkbox will appear showing the number of days until the training will expire. When your training expires it appears red.

 
Training Now Added to Your Profile Page

Every time you view your account you will see at a glance if you are current with your training. 100% percent earns you the training strip.

Also you will notice we have included the unit numbers, position patch and training strip on your profile page.  If you have multiple positions just go into your My Positions section and choose which position you want to appear in your profile.  This is your default profile position.

140+ Official BSA Training Codes

Scoutbook has added all 140+ training codes so in addition to the basic courses like Y01 Youth Protection, you can keep track of SA Safety Afloat, WS81 Weather Hazards and many more.  Scoutbook automatically knows which courses have expiration dates so you will never fall behind on your training.  

We work closely with the BSA Volunteer Training Team so when they announce changes Scoutbook will be sure to keep you up to date.

Let us know how you like the new training section.  Post your comments below.  Thanks.

    This has been very helpful in making sure all adult leaders are trained.

    Scout Book is asking for Committee Specific Training C60. I took Pack Committee Training SCO_200 through SCO_229 which I think may be the same thing. So I just go through and enter each of those SCO courses? I can't find any one course that matches the C60 in my.scouting.org Please advise--thanks.

    Somebody needs to go in and update the list of courses. None of the more recent batch of courses are listed (SCO_4xx and SCO_5xx) and other courses that are not offered in every council are missing as well, such as BCOLS (Back Country Outdoor Leadership Skills) training.

    Scoutbook shows that I need Webelos Leader & Assistant Position Specifics Training (C61). I can't seem to find it on my.scouting.com, I have the Den Leader training. The "C" class of training doesn't even show on the requirements list. If C61 has been eliminated, how can I complete this on Scoutbook?

    One of my leaders is fully trained and when synced with ScoutNet it only shows their YPT training. How can I resolve this issue?
