THIS IS SCOUTING - NEW BASIC TRAINING COURSE: Required for all leaders wishing to be basic leader trained. - "This is Scouting" was added to the BSA's Online Learning Center on March 15, 2009. "This is Scouting" replaces New Leader Essentials as required course for Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Venturing volunteers to earn the "Trained" leader emblem. All Scouters are encouraged to create a MyScouting account and access this training through the MyScouting portal, as credit for this training will be recorded in their training record upon completion. * Note: If you have already taken the former New Leaders Essentials course, it will still qualify for this general orientation segment of your basic training.
