Internet Advancement is here! 

Internet Advancement makes it easy for unit leadership to record awards, ranks, and merit badges to youth via an easy online process; and at a time convenient to you! And, you will be able to print an official unit roster at any time. The roster is the most current information from ScoutNet, and it will include the person ID for each adult and youth member.

These are other reports available from Internet Advancement:

• Unit Advancement Summary shows ranks, merit badges, and awards saved in each person record for current registered members of the unit.
  
• Advancement Report lists each youth member that has new ranks, merit badges, and awards, if any. This is the official unit Advancement Report to be signed and submitted to the Scout Shop.
  
• Unit Awards Summary lists the number of new ranks, merit badges, and awards by name as a shopping list.
  
• Advancement Update Summary lists any ranks, merit badges, and awards that were already in the member record and updated.

The council will provide each unit with a unit ID at Super Saturday June 7th (hint – It’s the same unit ID used for Good Turn for America.) Each participating unit will assign an adult to record advancements. As ranks must be recorded according to program identification, each unit ID is separate and unique. Ranks entered in the correct rank and date must be sequence. Only the Eagle Scout rank cannot be awarded by this process. Also nominated awards, such as those for meritorious action, and awards that are controlled by other organizations, even if approved for wear on the uniformed, cannot be entered.

Find out more about this exciting opportunity at Super Saturday June 7th and at August roundtables. Questions may be directed to your District Commissioner.
