Internet Recharter – What you need to know
September 29, 2008 by Webmaster · Comments Off
At Thursday night’s Roundtable (10/2/2008), we will provide Training for the new Internet Registration. Although we will explain it in more detail, you may see a preview at http://scoutnet.scouting.org/ucrs/Help/tutorial/main.html and prepare your questions.
Your Unit must appoint a “Renewal Processor” person to perform the Registration. The same RP may service additional Units in our District. The RP will have exclusive access to your Unit information. The (computer Internet) Unit Access Code for your Unit will be in your Registration Packet, available at this Oct. 2 Roundtable. It is recommended that the RP attend this Training.
The actual Internet Registration starting date will be Nov. 1 and must be completed by Dec. 15. During this time window, the RP may leave the Internet work and return with no loss of information.
Your District Committee members look forward to helping you succeed in this new process.
