Learning for adults

An introduction to the adult training scheme

Our adult training is designed to ensure that everyone that is volunteering with us has the skills they need to carry out their role effectively. It is also designed to ensure the delivery of high quality, safe, sound and exciting scouting to our members across South London Scout County.

If you have any questions about training please contact your District's Local Training Manager (click here for their contact details), who will be able to help you.

REMEMBER: You are in control. So, book onto courses or modules, attend the training and get the modules you have attended validated!
