Why we’re changing Learning

We want all our volunteers to have the skills and knowledge they need to feel confident to help keep young people safe and help them gain skills for life.

As part of the Transformation System go live on 28^th November you’ll have access to the new Learning Tree rather than the Adult Training Scheme. Going forward into 2025 and beyond, we'll be organising learning at Scouts in what we call the Learning Tree. This will be rolled out over the coming months. It'll be made up of Growing Roots, learning that's personalised to you as a volunteer, and Branching Out, the learning you can access to further develop your skills and knowledge (and achieve a wood badge).

Access to this learning and progress tracking will be available within the new Membership System. For any learning which requires assessment follow these handy steps on how to send it for Assessment, here, where one of our Learning Assessor Community will be on hand to check it off.
