In our Troop the Scoutmaster, assistants and committee members can "sign off" requirements for a scout. The PLC also can sign off requirements for the younger scouts from the Scout, Tenderfoot, Secondclass and Firstclass ranks. Unlike our Cubscout program parents can not sign off requirements unless they are a part of the leadership team. Parents are requested to not sign off on their scout's requirements. However parents are encouraged to work with their scout on his requirements.
