Adult Training in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan

No one is expected to start a new job without some sort of training, and Scouting is just the same. You will also bring with you a wide variety of skills and abilities, and Scouting recognises these too. There are some parts of the training that are essential and can relate only to Scouting, but a lot of them can draw on your outside of Scouting experiences to complete the Modules needed for your role.

You will start off with the Getting Started Modules which will not only give you a good grounding in what Scouting is all about, but will also help you play a valuable role in your Scouting role. These are elements of the training that every adult in Scouting needs.

All of the Modules have to be validated but this is not as horrible as it sounds. It is simple projects and discussions that show you understand what you and Scouting is doing, by doing things you normally would in your role. Your Getting Started Modules will be assessed by your Group Scout Leader or Commissioner and is quite informal.



Depending on your role you will be expected to complete a series of Modules that will take you to the award of the Wood Badge the internationally recognized emblem of a trained Leader in Scouting. For this you will be guided through your training by a Training Adviser who will help you through the preparation of a Personal Learning Plan, assess what you have achieved and validate the Modules for you.
