Scouts Australia, as part of the child protection policy, requires all Adult Members (leaders, Group Support Committee members, youth program supporters etc.) to complete the mandatory e-Learning module "Child Safe Scouting".
With the inclusion of volunteers into the QLD Workplace Health and Safety legislation, Scouts QLD requires all adult members to also complete the e-Learning module "WHS for Scouting".
Everyone has to complete these, initially at sign up and then every three years.
When an Adult Member is signed up, as part of the sign up process they should be informed about the requirement to complete the two modules within 6 months of signup. These modules then need to be redone every three years.
Providing you have a valid email address registered with Scouts QLD, you will receive an email from Scouts Australia nearing the expiry date. The email will inform you about the need to login to the training site (link below) and complete the module within 4 weeks of the expiry date.
Scouts QLD also monitors the completion of these modules and sends through to the Region Commissioners on a monthly basis, a list of people that need to complete the modules.
Failing to complete the modules in the required time frame will result in the Adult Member being suspended (notice of suspension is sent to the Adult Member, the team leader, the DC and the RC). Once suspended the Adult Member will have 4 weeks to complete the module or face being terminated.
The modules are completed through the Scouts Australia training site.
Talk to your team leader if you don't know your login details.
