Training Requirements
The following lists out the training requirements for roles within the Group. It does not make judgements on whether people already have those skills or not – that is the next stage.
New Appointees
| Col A | Group Chairman, Group Secretary, Group Treasurer, Group Administrator, Group Adviser, Group President, Group Vice-President |
| Col B | Section Assistants |
| Col C | Leaders and Assistant Leaders |
Changes of Appointment
| Col D | Leader to Assistant in same Section or vice versa |
| Col E | Leader to Leader (or Assistant) in different Section |
| Col F | Section Assistant to Leader or Assistant |
It may be in discussion that for example an Assistant moving to Leader in the same Section needs to do some additional training although it is not specifically required.
Under the ‘Change of Appointment’ sections where no training is required, this is only the case if the training was carried out in the previous appointment. Where no training is required (n), validation is not required either.
