Silver Award training is a required step to earning the Girl Scout Silver Award. Training outlines the required elements of a Silver Award project, the available resources, brainstorming tips, and the submission process.
Adult members can access the Girl Scout Silver Award Training through gsLearn by signing into MyGS. Once in gsLearn, search the content library in the green menu on the left side of the screen for the course: 263 Earning the Silver Award. This learning path includes four courses that are self-paced and can be completed as a group during troop meetings. If a group of Cadettes is taking the training together, please be sure to fill out the quick online form at the end of the fourth module to let council know who has completed the training.
Please note that Cadettes can have a registered caregiver or troop leader/volunteer help them access the training through gsLearn, or they can request access themselves using this form.
We also have a team of facilitators to deliver the required training as an in-person workshop. Complete this form to request a two-and-a-half-hour workshop. Minimum attendance is 10 Girl Scouts and requests require a minimum of four weeks to be scheduled.
You can view a list of upcoming in-person workshops on our Events List.
Once your training is complete, don’t forget that if you have questions, we also offer monthly FAQ and Brainstorming sessions with the Silver Award Committee for additional support. You can register for these sessions here. This is a great way to discuss project plans before you submit your proposal.
You can also reach out to customer care at customercare@gswpa.org or by phone at 800-248-3355 with questions.
