Progression is something we promote at Girl Scouts, both for girls and for our volunteers. No one joins the organization already knowing the many resources we have at a national and council level, with the Girl Scout handbook and Volunteer Essentials committed to memory, and knowing a skilled facilitator for every badge and activity that your troop is going to want to try. And that’s okay!
To help you build your knowledge and skills as a volunteer, we’ve put together a handy dandy customizable training and learning path to guide our volunteers to the training and learning opportunities that best fits the current (and future) needs of their troop. It’s called the Volunteer Learning Progression Chart.
