Task
7.0.2.1. Added to the council or district counselor list
Required
The council advancement committee is responsible for keeping the list current, council-wide or by district. It is made available to troops, crews and ships.
Notes and warnings
Warning. Online counselor lists should only be available from official council websites or tools such as Scoutbook Plus that meet National Council guidelines. Access is limited to people with merit badge responsibilities: advancement committee members and chairs, unit leaders and selected assistants.
Note. Counselor recruiting is an ongoing responsibility. As counselors are added and others drop off, the changes must reach the district or council advancement committee so the list stays dependable.
