Basic Orientation Online Training

GSUSA offers a web-based Basic Orientation Training Module: Training for Adults Who Work with Girls. It covers basic information about Juliette Low, the Promise and Law, the Four Program Goals, girl/adult partnership, safety, and pluralism.

The Basic Online training assumes you have an email address. If you do not, you can set up a free email account at one of the internet providers.

Access:

The Basic Orientation Training is located in a special section of the GSUSA website

•  Go to http://training.girlscouts.org

•  Each part of the training is marked by a different color Daisy. Click on the topic you wish to complete and follow all the prompts. Watch the bottom right portion of your screen for prompts to all the pages and steps. Depending on the size of your monitor, you may have to scroll down to see all the additional pages and steps to complete. When you have completed a section, you will be returned to the Welcome Screen and the appropriately colored Petal for the sections you have completed will be colored in.

•  Upon completion of all nine sections of the training, you will receive a “congratulations” by email. This will not be immediate; it may take a couple days to process your training. Take this email to any other training or bring it into the council office along with your training card to have it signed as completed.

This training counts as your Basic Orientation Training. The Adult Development Director will retrieve council participant information on a regular basis. Your training records will be credited as completing Basic Orientation Training at that time.
