Twocubdad 665 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 I've heard mention that there is a new Youth Protection video either out or on the way. Does anyone know for sure? Maybe the rumor of a new tape was just a misunderstanding in anticipation of the online version? Who knows. Either way, I need to get a copy to train day camp staffers and want to make sure I'm getting the latest version. Question 2 -- it has been an article of faith around here that Youth Protection certification is good for only two years, after which you have to re-take the training. I can't find any written reference to this. Do others require bi-annual retraining? Can anyone find a written policy related to this? Link to post Share on other sites
nldscout 18 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 its a council by council policy unless its a national event as to when it expires. Link to post Share on other sites
Eamonn 61 Posted March 28, 2003 Share Posted March 28, 2003 We use a video that is about 18 months old. It has a very annoying clock that counts down in places !! Not sure what the time line is elsewhere, we do it every year. Link to post Share on other sites
Overtrained 10 Posted April 17, 2003 Share Posted April 17, 2003 I haven't heard of any new video, just the web training. I was a camp director and Camp School Staff over 8 years and I thought they had a seperate manual for camp staff that you got at Camp Director's training at Camp School. It was different from the general training. That was 7 years ago though. Might be worth checking though. Link to post Share on other sites
Mike F 10 Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Overtrained, Can you post the link to the web-based training? Does it include instructions on how to document that training completed? Thanks!!! -mike Link to post Share on other sites
Bob White 20 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 Mike, The program is Council specific to allow the program to be customized to reflect the appropriate stae and local laws and local council contact information. You will need to contact your local council to see if they have theoir version on line yet. At the end of the training an email with your test score is sent to the local council contact (PART OF THE PERSONALIZATION REQUIRED) and you are send a pocket certificate to record your completion. So you would not be able to use 'overtrained's' link since it is only applicable to scouters in his council. Bob Link to post Share on other sites
