Training Schedule: Get Ready for the 2014-2015 Cookie Program!

GSNCA is excited to share the 2014-2015 Cookie Program training schedule. Please view the schedule below and register for a training that works for you!
***It is mandatory for first time Troop Cookie Manager’s (Cookie Rookies) to attend the in-person council training.***
All registered girls will be uploaded directly into eBudde again this year. Please make sure your girls are registered by December 1, 2014.
In order to best serve you, we will need you to register for Cookie Training. Please use the Adult Learning & Girl Leadership form found on the council website. The page link is provided below:
http://girlscoutsnca.org/wp-content/uploads/Adult-Learning-Girl-Leadership-Awards-Registration-Form2.pdf
Please register two weeks before the class date so that we can send  a confirmation e-mail with needed check in information. Our goal is to provide the volunteers and girls with all the information they need to have a positive product sale experience. Help us to provide that for you by registering early. We thank you for your commitment to the girls and willingness to be a part of this exciting Girl Scout Cookie Program!
All volunteers who register for training will be given priority the day of training. If you come to training without preregistering we will ask you to wait until all registered participants are checked in. If there is still space available we will be able to let you attend.We are providing food, fun and door prizes!! In order to be eligible for prizes registration is a must!

Please note that we will not be adding additional trainings. There is a webinar available for returning troop cookie managers. If you are a returning troop cookie manager and cannot attend a scheduled training by your Service Unit Cookie Manager, you can attend any of the council training or you can view the recorded webinar session. Training materials will be distributed by your Service Unit Cookie Manager after training is completed.
