Scouting is going though a period of Transformation. Region, District and Group structures have been redesigned. Volunteers are now assigned roles in teams, and can be in several teams, depending on the roles and tasks they undertake.
Learning has also changed.
All volunteers must complete “Growing Roots” Learning. This is accessible through your Scout membership record. Once complete, each module is recorded automatically on your record.
