The Scouts is a voluntary movement dedicated to the development of young people between the ages of 6 and 25. Each week over 100,000 adult volunteers, in a variety of roles throughout the UK, help Scouting to achieve its aim. While The Scouts’ primary purpose is the development of young people, it also seeks to offer personal development opportunities to adults, both within their Scouting role and as individuals. The Adult Training Scheme is one means by which adults in Scouting can be supported in their chosen role. It can also help to meet personal development needs.
The Adult Training Scheme is based around two key elements:
The Scouts recognises that each individual has different needs. They will have different prior knowledge and experience, learning styles, personal circumstances, motivations and support mechanisms (both inside and outside of Scouting). Therefore, a range of learning opportunities are provided.
An individual’s learning needs might be met in a range of ways, one of which could be a training course. They might also be met by reading a book, watching a video, talking to a friend, through practical work, by watching a demonstration, or perhaps by simply reading a set of instructions. Individuals are encouraged to use the method or methods most appropriate to their needs in order to gain the relevant learning.
The Scouts tries to demonstrate in its methods of adult learning the same methods that it employs with young people. Any range of learning experiences is therefore likely to include:
Location, additional needs or personal circumstances should not be a limiting factor for adult training. Therefore, the opportunity for individuals to do their learning at home has been built into most learning methods (through the use of distance learning methods, primarily workbooks, video and e-learning). As one of the key principles of the scheme is flexibility it is essential that adults have access to these different options
The Scouts’ Adult Training Scheme enables adults to gain the skills necessary for them to deliver and/or support the Programme.
Specifically, it is intended to:
There are lots of people who can help you along with your training. This starts at your section/committee level with your fellow leaders through to the District Commissioner himself (He is the big boss of Gosport Scouting.)
The levels of help available are as follows:
At 6th Gosport we pride ourselves on our huge team ethos. This spreads across everything we do. From events with the children through to our adult social nights.
This means that you can and will be welcomed to approach any member of the team.
When you join the group you will join what is called a section. This could be Squirrels, Beavers, Cubs or Scouts. Each one of these sections is made up from a Section Leader, Assistant Section Leaders, Sectional Assistants through to Occasional helpers. Any of these team members may be able to help you?
Sectional Level is always the easiest and most common method of gaining help with your training.
In additional to your section leaders and volunteers, we also have a large group structure. Across the 4 sections of team6th, we have loads of leaders, all at varying levels of experience and knowledge. This is also a extremely useful pool of information and experience which people would be more than happy to help with.
Within the group we have our 4 sections. These 4 sections make up the group 6th Gosport. However across Gosport there are around 12 groups all with their own sections. This collection of groups combined is called Gosport Disctrict.
Gosport District Scouts is headed by our DC (District Commissioner) Robin Peddle.
Robin has a fantastic team supporting him, and these individuals (Assistant District Commisioners) each hold responsibility for individual areas, such as beavers, cubs etc and also things such as activities and adult support. So there are loads of people around that can help.
You can find out more about the district team at www.Gosportscouts.org.uk
The training Advisor at 6th is our Scout Leader, Nigel Fleetwood. Nigel has been involved in Scouting for almost 15 years in an official capacity but has been involved in some aspect his whole life in more of an unofficial role due to his families involvement.
Nigel is the main point of contact at the group for all training related queries and enquiries.
He can be contact at the button below.
Validation is the process we use to ensure that we can fairly and consitantly assess that the level of skills/knowledge required for each module has been achieved. This is conducted by a TA (Training Advisor) using the validation criteria set out in the modules breakdowns.
Yes. We have a saying that learning is encouraged but Validation is mandatory.
Most definitely. We are all volunteers and it is important that we understand and value the knowledge and experiences that each individual brings to scouting. These skills could have been learnt from previous jobs, hobbies or past experiences in scouting or other youth organisations. However, fundamentally you are a Volunteer so why should you spend more of your time ‘learning’ skills you already have.
But as mentioned previously, although we value and recognise previous skills and experiences we just need to validate to ensure it is sufficient and relevant to the needs of scouting.
In every module breakdown there are a defined set of validation criteria. Once you are happy that you have the sufficient knowledge/skills you need to touch base with your TA.
Each module is different but fundementally we need to provide evidence that you have acheived the criteria/standards required. This can be done in many different forms. For example:
Once you have this you can email it to Training@team6th.org or message your TA with the button below.
You’ll learn about your responsibilities for keeping young people and adults safe, what to do in an emergency and how to report incidents.
Doing things safely is fundamental to everything we do in Scouting. The Safety training ensures that you understand your responsibilities for keeping everyone in Scouts safe and how to assess and manage risk.
Getting Started is a collection of e-learning modules that help new volunteers settle in their role.You can complete them in any order, at a time that suits you, within the first five months of volunteering.
Safety training is one of the Getting Started modules.
Validation is the process of confirming you’ve completed your training, understood the content and are able to apply what you’ve learned.
To validate this module, all you need to do is to complete the assessment, download the certificate (or take a screenshot), and send it to your volunteer line manager or Training Advisor, if you have one.
If you’re not sure who you should email the certificate to, send it to the Training Compliance Volunteer Team at training.compliance@scouts.org.uk
You don’t need to wait for this module to be validated to start other Getting Started training modules.
This module is for all new volunteers in their first 5 months and must be renewed every 3 years.
If you are not sure if you need to do this module, check the Roles Tables.
You can also ask your volunteer line manager or Training Advisor, or contact the Info Centre.
You can access our e-learning courses on desktops, mobiles and tablets. It also works well on all browsers, such as Safari, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome and Edge.
On mobile and tablet, some of the boxes don’t show all of the words. Turning to landscape from portrait helps with this.
Please don’t hit refresh on your browser (particularly if you get a question wrong on the assessment) as this will prevent you from being able to generate the certificate at the end.
You will be able to re-take the assessment at the end.
Don’t forget to download or take a screenshot of your certificate. It will be lost if you refresh or close the webpage.
To report any technical errors please contact the Info Centre.
The accessibility tools guide provides some hints and tips on how to build accessibility features into your device.
If e-learning doesn’t suit your needs, talk to your line manager or Training Advisor. They can provide one-to-one support or advise you to use the Safety training workbook.
When using alternatives to e-learning you won’t be automatically given a certificate, so you will need to agree with your line manager or Training Advisor how to validate the module.
The Safe Scouting Cards provide guidance for making sure everyone is safe.
You’ll learn how to keep young people and adults at risk safe, how to recognise abuse and how to report a concern.
You’ll also learn about our Safeguarding Policy and our Code of Practice, known as the Yellow Card.
