Online Handbook Training (Beginner)

Dear Guiders,   Online Handbook – GuidingLIGHT Guiders were equipped on the use of GuidingLIGHT after they have attended the training sessions that were conducted since April. There will be three more sessions left and we strongly urge you to sign up for the upcoming trainings so that you can better use this platform during this period. These trainings are all done via Zoom Meeting.   All Brownie and Guide Guiders should sign up for at least one of these sessions. Guiders who attend the session will also be awarded Skills Badge – Online Handbook e-certificate. For Guiders who have already attended our earlier Expert Training session in February, there is no need to sign up for these sessions.
