Training and Adult Education

To enhance each volunteer's experience in the council, volunteer trainers for River Bluffs Girl Scout Council offer a wide variety of training and adult education opportunities. Whether you choose to lead a troop or teach outdoor skills, we have opportunities for you to share with other Girl Scout volunteers and find more ways to make your job easier and fun!

Adult Training in the River Bluffs Girl Scout Council

Girl Scouts of River Bluffs Council is very lucky to have some exceptional volunteers that are instrumental in providing training to all of our adult volunteers. They are the Council Trainers and the Training Coordinators. Without them and their commitment to Girl Scouting, the Council would be unable to provide the number and variety of training courses that it does.

Our training program is designed to help adult volunteers to broaden their understanding of the philosophy, aims, and program of the Girl Scout Movement, and to increase the knowledge and skills they need to do their jobs with competence and satisfaction.

Two times a year, volunteers receive a training calendar listing upcoming opportunities and the particulars of registering for a training or workshop.  Check out our 2008 Spring & Summer Training Calendar
