We are actively seeking Scouters with experience in the following roles to assist us in delivering training to our North Shore leaders:

We are also looking for assistance with the following:

• Training course registration/paperwork
• Maintaining records of North Shore Scouter training knot awards
• Serving in a quartermaster role for training events
• Putting together "training kits" for use by our training teams

Becoming a trainer requires the following commitments:

• ...becoming fully conversant with the training material being delivered
• ...attending trainer orientation sessions as appropriate
• ...delivering the best possible training experience to our customers (our Scouters)

The time commitment for trainers varies. Some trainers help out occasionally, perhaps once or twice a year. Others more frequently. Some trainers specialize in certain areas and others are more "generalists". Some are active members of the District Training Committee. The level of commitment you make to training is up to you.
