Why should I take this training?

Venturing offers young people a chance to explore a passion or interest while still learning and practicing the art of leadership. It’s a rewarding program for adults because you’re able to serve as a mentor to some amazing young adults. But with that reward comes responsibility.

Venturing Advisor Position-Specific Training will give you an introduction to everything you need to know about being an Advisor, from helping the crew President and other youth leaders run the program to working with the crew Committee (in fact, sometimes the training is held in conjunction with the Venturing Crew Committee Challenge Training). It won’t answer every question, but it’s a great start. And, it’s available online so you can complete it in 10-minute modules during your free time. You can also take the course in person; an advantage of doing it this way is you’ll be able to ask questions and get feedback from an experienced Scouter who has been in your shoes before.
