Its all in there, worded weirdly, and I swear different than the last time I read it. They have been making changes without announcing or annotated the change. Not a great regulatory practice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2Ocaveman Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Keep scrolling, it is not in the best place for clear guidance. It is after the Reporting Requirements section. I am also following your posted link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PACAN Posted May 3 Author Share Posted May 3 Have you seen the commercial where things are going haywire and the female says we need someone who knows COBOL and the guy says what's COBOL.? Scouting HQ IT uses this program. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tron Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 Just brace for it. Next week is the NAM; if it's the same as the past we will see IT deploy a load of changes/new content/random stuff to support the presentations and we wont have context until those presentations become public.

If your YPT expires after 5/31, you have to take the whole new safeguarding youth training before 5/31. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People who legitimately expire after 5/31/26 have already done the new SYT. Those who show an expiration date after 5/31 have already done the new course and will be able to do a 20-minute refresher that went live last month. I did the refresher about 6 weeks prior to my expiration date. I completed the new SYT as soon as it was released on the last day of the 2025 NAM. My certificate initially showed an expiration date of 5/17/2027, however, about a week later National changed all expiration dates to 5/31/26. Individuals who completed the new SYT after May 31 last year will expire one year from the date of completion. My district has 16 people expiring between 6/126 - 6/25/26.

Eagle94-A1 Posted 8 hours ago Share Posted 8 hours ago What I want to know is why would a council, knowing the refresher course would be coming shortly, require everyone to complete SYT by April 1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that a council has or would do this because the key 3 are not communucating with national and failed to know about this stage of the transition from ypt to syt.
