My.scouting listing ASMs & SMs as untrained for S24

I have been researching why Trained Leader Reports changed Training in my.scouting.org under Training Manager as of November 2024. On December 19, 2024, a Scouter, William Nelson, with the Scoutbook User Advisory Council posted on this Scouting Wire Forum about what changes were made to Training. He stated that the Position Trained Requirements were updated in December 2024. Hazardous Weather Training (Code SCO_800 - 31 minutes) also called Weather Smart Training (online training video), has caused part of the Training confusion because it expires every 2 years.

National BSA has updated the Trained Leader Reports on my.scouting.org to reflect this requirement, which has caused Units to show a percentage of their members untrained. Members who complete this training and the other position trained requirements online help training in units get back to 100%.

When looking at your Trained Leader’s Report a member can complete either the classroom training or the online training to be considered Trained. They don’t have to complete both. Requirements C32 - BALOO (Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation) for Cub Scouts or S11 - IOLS (Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills) for Scouts BSA are Classroom Trainings that are required for certain positions. Youth Protection Training (YO1) and Hazardous Weather Training (SCO_800) are to be completed every 2 years from the completion date.
