Effective April 30, new direct contact leaders must complete Hazardous Weather Training to be considered position trained
Q. If I am trained in my current position, will I be required to take Hazardous Weather now to retain the trained designation?
A. No, if you are currently trained in your position you will not be required to take the additional course now. We recommend if you have not taken the updated course (SCO_800) that you do so to have the most current content.

Tip: Position Code 91, “Scouter Reserve” will preclude any additional position-specific training requirements—but then again, why not fill a real need!
