Older Girl Trainings

Limitless Opportunities

Now that you are older, the opportunities available to you through Girl Scouting become limitless – you can even become a Program Aide, a Counselor or Volunteer in Training, or earn your Bronze, Silver and Gold Awards!

These opportunities can jump start your future in a big way by broadening your experiences, building new skills, helping you make connections in the community, and rocking your resume.

Trainings By Level

The Girls Guide to Girl Scouting handbooks for each level has detailed requirements for earning additional leadership awards. Here is what you can earn and/or become trained in, at each Girl Scout level beginning at fourth grade:

  • Juniors can earn their Bronze Award
  • Cadettes can earn their Program Aide and Silver Award
  • Seniors and Ambassadors can earn Counselor in Training I and II, Volunteer In Training, and their Gold Award

Find the right training for you

Check back often, as more awards workshops will be scheduled throughout the year.
