Required Training For New Leaders Girl Scout program is delivered through various pathways. (GSUSA pathways include: Troop, Series, Travel, Camping, Events and Virtual). Regardless of pathway, all adults must satisfactorily complete appropriate education in the following topics before working with girls.   

An introduction to Girl Scouting and to the council GSUSA and council safety requirements specific to the Pathway Council policies and practices related to travel; sensitive issues; finance; moneyearning by girls; tobacco, alcohol, drug, and weapons prohibitions; and other policies and practices that may be related to the specific Pathway

« GSUSA Volunteer Orientation (all pathways) – This course is required of all new volunteers and provides the first close-up view of the Girl Scout organization for all new volunteers. Participants will become acquainted with Girl Scouting and the many rewarding opportunities it offers girls and adults. It is available online, home study, or face to face. « Troop Beginnings(Troop Pathway): This session is designed to help new leaders get started with their troop. This course is offered as part of the educational calendar or it can be scheduled with the service unit manager, troop consultant, troop organizer, or membership coordinator. At least one member of the leadership team must complete Volunteer Orientation and Troop Beginnings before meeting with a troop. « Leadership Essentials(all pathways): These training modules will help prepare volunteers to effectively facilitate the Girl Scout Leadership Experience (GSLE) by using the three keys to leadership of how girls discover their personal best, connect with others and take action to improve their communities. Participants will discover how to use resources to support the delivery of the GSLE, including the Journeys--Girls‘ Book with accompanying Guide for Adult Volunteers, how to facilitate activities so they are girlled, learning by doing, and cooperative learning as well as convey the value of inner leadership practices for themselves and the girls. To enrich your troop‘s program and yourself, register for and attend any of the variety of classes offered by the council. Optional enrichment courses can help you work more effectively with your girls. Enrichment classes include games and songs, crafts, troop finances, adventure programs and more. Many of these classes are offered at your service unit leader meetings or at special weekend training events such as Fall Kickoff, Winter Training Festival and Outdoor Training Weekend. Note on Online trainings from GSUSA: A new training is scheduled to be released this fall from GSUSA: Girl Scouting 101. The easy-to-use Girl Scouting 101 introduces new volunteers to Girl Scouts‘ inspiring national leadership experience, from Journey resources and The Girl‘s Guide to Girl Scouting to cookie sales, safety guidelines, and much more. Spend about 45–50 minutes learning online—whenever you can fit it into your day. This training will replace the current GSUSA Orientation and Leadership Essentials in September 2012. If used, it will be accepted in lieu of the current training. Also watch for an additional training scheduled to be released this fall from GSUSA: Volunteering for Girl Scouts Series and Events. This is a condensed version of Girl Scouting 101. If you‘re a new series/events volunteer, this 25-minute online introduction will give you the essence of Girl Scouts‘ inspiring national leadership experience— whenever it‘s convenient for you. 5


Outdoor Training What Outdoor Training Do I Need? GSUSA requires that adults receive training from their council before participating in outdoor program. These trainings are a part of the council‗s risk management plan and help leaders provide a safe environment for the girls. In Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana, there are three levels of outdoor training, and each course is the prerequisite to the next. It is recommended that adult volunteers experience camping with their girls at each level of the program before progressing to the next level. Approval for each level is valid for five years. Camp In (7 hours total) To take girls to camp for the day or stay the night at a winterized building:   

Camp In A will help adults prepare girls for day activities in the out of doors and is available as a home study or as a face-to-face class. You may go to camp for the day after completing this part. Camp In B will prepare adults prepare their girls for overnights in winterized buildings and is only available as a face-to-face class. Both parts are required to reserve winterized buildings for either day or overnight use.

Camp Out (8 hours total): To help adults prepare girls for camping, including camping in tents and other shelters in established campsites, while travel camping or pitching a tent on any site. Outdoor Training Update (4 hours total): To review and update skills and renew training credentials for adults who have taken previous GS Kentuckiana Outdoor Level III training. Successful completion of Outdoor Update renews training credentials/authorization for five years. Outdoor update does not renew credentials for Wilderness Travel. Wilderness Travel (24-30 hours): Prepares adults to take girls trip camping in a wilderness environment

with as little impact on the environment as possible. See ‗Group Camping‗ and Trip/Travel Camping‗ in Safety Activity Checkpoints for detailed information about preparing for emergencies as well as Chapter 4 ―Safety-Wise‖ for the type of First Aid/CPR requiring a Level 2 first aider. To Renew Troop Camping Approval you may do one of the options below:   

Retake current level Take next higher level Those renewing at Camp Out you may take Wilderness Travel or the Outdoor Update

HOW TO TRANSITION OUTDOOR TRAINING FOR RETURNING VOLUNTEERS If you have already completed Level 1 – Outdoor Beginnings, this is equivalent to Camp In A. You will only need to take Camp In B to camp overnight in buildings. If you have already completed Level II-Basic Troop Camping, you are good for overnight in buildings and outdoor cooking, etc. Take Camp Out next, and you are ready to camp in platform tents, pitched tents, etc. (There will be some overlap in skills, but it will serve as a refresher/practice). If you have already completed Level III – Advanced Troop Camping, this is equivalent to Camp In and Camp Out. Now you are ready to take Wilderness Travel. If your training is expiring, you can move up to the next level. If you are expiring from Outdoor III you can take Outdoor Update or Wilderness travel. 6
