Training

adults: training

A great opportunity to meet with other Girl Scout volunteers, exchange ideas and expand your network of support.

 

Register for one of our new Leadership Essentials trainings! This training takes the place of program level training for new leaders and changing level training for experienced leaders.

Training opportunities offered through Girl Scouts - Sybaquay Council are made possible through the efforts of our volunteer council trainers, who willingly share their knowledge, enthusiasm, and time with others. With their dedication we are able to offer a wide variety of courses designed to help you acquire the skills and resources you need to carry out your volunteer responsibilities. Our schedule is filled with all the classes you need to fulfill the requirements of your volunteer position, as well as with a variety of enrichment classes.

As a Girl Scout volunteer, you are the person who brings the Girl Scout program to the girls of Sybaquay Council. Whether you are a leader, a troop committee member or an administrative volunteer, you are important to the success of Girl Scouting. Sybaquay Council's Board of Directors has adopted the policy that: Troop/group leaders must complete orientation and leadership essentials learning opportunities within 12 weeks of their first meeting with their troop/group (Volunteer Resource Guide, pg. 17)

Sybaquay Council's core of volunteer trainers is eager to support you as you learn and grow. So join in and share the learning and fun!

How to Register

Registration Procedures

Registration is required for all courses to ensure that trainers have adequate instructional materials and that classes do not go beyond their allowed requirements. The deadline for class registration is FIVE WORKING DAYS prior to the class date. Registration after the deadline will be accepted ONLY at the discretion of the director of adult development. WE CANNOT ACCEPT WALK-INS. Only participants who have registered through the Girl Scout Center in advance will receive credit for their training. Register early as COURSES HAVE ENROLLMENT LIMITS. You will receive registration confirmation from the Girl Scout Center and will be notified if your class is cancelled. If you are not notified of any change, the course will be held at the time and location as listed on the schedule. TO RECEIVE CREDIT FOR A COURSE YOU MUST ATTEND THE ENTIRE SESSION. If the trainer feels you have missed too much by arriving late or leaving early, you will need to repeat the course.
