Welcome unit advancement processors. Thank you for your participation is this new program. With your help the council will be able to maintain individual achievement records on our youth and give you access to the most current roster of adults and youth in your unit; all from your home or office.
Units can use Internet Advancement at any time as long as the unit is an active unit, which means it is no more than two months past its expiration date. The Unit ID will not work until the unit is renewed. There is no limited access window as in Internet Rechartering.
At any time during the year, the unit advancement chair from each active unit will be able to record advancements of youth members through this system. Plus, they'll also be able to print a 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. Temporary / replacement membership cards can also be printed via this system.We recommend that units enter data at least once a month so that records are current. Also any advancements earned during the current year must be entered by December 31st of that year. First obtain your unit unique ID number from your District Advancement Chairman (Bill Simonds bsimonds@comcast.net) NOTE: Lorraine Fasci (Registrar) 860-289-6669 ext. 226 will serve as the “Help” Desk if online Help does not resolve the problem. We suggest that you gather previous year’s advancement report so that you can update records if necessary. Note: The council did enter individual records for a two-year period, however, some records are incomplete. How Internet Advancement Works Internet Advancement makes it easy for unit leadership to record awards, ranks, and merit badges to youth via an online process. This system is separate from Internet Rechartering, but uses a similar concept. We recommend you view this online training prior to using Internet Advancement for the first time. If you do not see a youth's name on the roster you may download an application to registered them. Once the application is complete please, submit the application with appropriate signatures and fees to your Council's registration department.
These are other reports available from Internet Advancement. - Unit Advancement Summary shows ranks, merit badges, and awards saved in each person record for current 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 office.
- 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 were updated online.
The council will provide each unit with a unit ID, and the unit will assign an adult to record advancements. Ranks must be recorded based on program identification and in the correct rank and date sequence. Only the Eagle Scout rank cannot be awarded by this process. Awards to be entered will not include nominated awards, such as those for meritorious action, and awards that are controlled by other organizations, even if approved for uniform wear. As BSA policies for rank entry are enforced, what units enter will meet these requirements. Click here to access Online Advancement
