The Boy Scouts of America provides youth protection training, not only for its registered adult leaders, but also for anyone who has reason to come into contact with Scouting youth (including Sea Scouts). The course that is specifically tailored to this age group is the “Venturing Leader Youth Protection Training,” and is available online. This website include a brief video that explains how to create an account that is never used for any purpose other than managing an individual's training.
