Volunteer Training

Ready to make this your most rewarding year yet?  We’ve got the training classes you need, whether you’re just getting started as a new leader, or ready to develop specific areas of program.  Everything from required training to ensure your Girls Scouts receive a safe experience that is fun and impactful to enrichment classes on Highest Awards, Camping, Travel and more.

We are here to provide you with the necessities to make the most of your volunteer experience, including a variety of resources and training opportunities available on gsLearn and in person.

Online and virtual options allow us to reach the greatest number of volunteers at one time, providing a fuller interactive experience. In-person classes are best for hands-on learning and practicing new skills. Using the same three processes as girls, adults get the best learning experiences.

Check out the Volunteer Learning Pathway to find the right training just for you!
