To avoid meeting the training requirements, can I simply resign from my official position in the Unit, and work in the background along with other parents?
Yes. However, the goal of this program is not “…to make everyone take training…”. Rather, the goal of the program is to help Units and Unit Leaders succeed, to help Leaders run successful Scouting programs, and to keep our Scouts (and Adult Scouters) safe and healthy. If your goal is to “avoid training”, then perhaps being a volunteer in Scouting is not for you, and resigning is the best course of action. On the other hand, if your objective is to work in the background, and allow other, trained, adults work with our Scouts, then your help is appreciated and we thank you for serving.
