Troop Leadership Orientation

Volunteers interested in engaging in a troop leadership role with Girl Scouts must complete the Troop Leadership Orientation.

This orientation will walk you through the information you need to know as a new Troop Leadership Volunteer! From troop banking and working with parents, to conducting your troop meeting, and so much more – you will have the tools needed to start your troop off on the right foot!

Each segment of the orientation is independent from each other; this allows you the opportunity to move through the training at whatever pace you are comfortable with!

After you have completed the training, please reach out to your Member Experience Manager with any questions. Together you will schedule an appointment to review any questions you may have and next steps to take.
