TRAINING


 

The adult volunteer is the foundation on which the Girl Scout Movement is built. Adult education is offered in Girl Scouting to support and enable adults to respond effectively to the needs of today’s girls. It also supports the achievement of the Girl Scout Mission and Council Goals.

All volunteers in Girl Scouts of Western Ohio are required to complete two required trainings for the position accepted within six months of appointment.

  1. Girl Scout FUNdamentals

  2. Job Training for the Appropriate Volunteer Position (Girl Scout Age Level Training for leaders, job training for service team volunteers, etc…)

The council will assume financial obligations as budgeted for the event, when a volunteer(s) is selected to represent the council at training seminars, conferences, or conventions beyond those routinely required.

Outdoor Training:
Any time a troop goes camping, the troop must be accompanied by an adult who is certified in Camping Certification (for lodge or tent camping) or Lodge Camping (for lodge camping only). The troop camp planning process should also be guided by the camp-certified adult.
