Scouting America takes great pride in the quality of our adult leadership. Being a leader in the Cub Scouts is a privilege, not a right. The quality of the program and the safety of our youth members call for high-quality adult leaders. 

See the attachment below for instructions on how to take YPT.

Youth Protection training is required for all BSA registered volunteers and is a joining requirement. For the WLACC, YPT is required to complete annually.

These courses are intended to provide position specific training with the information and tools they need to conduct a successful Program.  Training can be individual, group or online training at   My.Scouting.org  

Supplemental training is designed to provide orientation beyond the basic training offered in leader-specific training.  More information is available on the Scouting America website or take online training at  My.Scouting.org
