Adult Training

Scouting is not only about young people, the Adult training programme is there for our volunteers like you. The training programme allows you to build upon existing skills and knowledge and to learn, develop and maintain new skills.

The training programme is made up of mandatory, role specific and ongoing learning and is tailored for each role to ensure you have the correct skills.
