Adult Training

Find out about the training for your role or learn how you can help others through their training programme. Volunteers are the heart of the Scouts and we want you to get every bit as much out of it as you put in.

We know that Scouting is not only about young people, but also about the development of our volunteers. To support Scout volunteers, you are required to complete a training programme made up of mandatory, role-specific, and ongoing learning.

The training programme builds on your existing skills and knowledge and some elements count towards externally-recognised awards.

How do I get started with my training?

Follow these three easy steps to get started with your training journey.

Step 1: Check the training requirements for your role

Training modules that you need to complete depending on the volunteer role that you are taking on. To find out the modules you need, visit Appointments: Table 2 which lists all of our roles and their training requirements.

Step 2: Complete your Personal Learning Plan with your Training Adviser

We know that many Scout volunteers have prior learning which they can apply to their Scouts role.

Meet with your Training Adviser and complete your Personal Learning Plan together, recognising your previous experience.

Step 3: Complete your training modules

Start your training journey here. Work through the mandatory and role-specific modules for all volunteers and discover your ongoing learning requirements.

HM King Charles III has been confirmed as our new Patron, a great honour for UK Scouts.

The King continues a long tradition of the monarch giving their Patronage, dating back to 1912. This was when Scouts was granted its Royal Charter and HM George V became our first Patron.
