Notice!!! Meritbadge.Info will switch to the new site with BSA validation Friday morning March 13th.
If you wish to start using this site today, click here to launch meritbadge.info/mbn2
Adults must enter their BSA Number, DOB, First and Last name as it appears on their BSA ID card. We will query BSA and get back an answer. At this point one of three things can happen:
1) Your registration is verified - you can continue using Meritbadge.info normally
2) You are not registered or your registration has lapsed - your prior rights are revoked and you get the read-only screens that you see before your login
3) You are registered but your YPT has expired - your prior rights are revoked and you get the read-only screens that you see before your login
You have had at least two months to get yourself registered and complete YPT training. If you feel your validation is not working, send us an email with the four data items listed and we will validate your entry.
We have no control over what is on file at BSA. If everything matches your BSA ID card, there should be no issues. If not, your validation will fail.
Why are we doing this?
1. To provide higher security and validation of all adult users.
2. To clean up the mess we've accumulated via 15 years of poor user data entry.
How will we do this?
What should you do?
Login to https://my.scouting.org/ and copy your BSA ID Number then update your profile on Meritbadge.info. Let others in your unit know they should do the same. We are giving you 2.5 months advanced notice to make this work.

Description |
BSA strongly recommends that everyone be trained in first aid and CPR. The BSA requires at least one person (two preferred) per unit to be Wilderness First Aid (WFA) - cetified for certain high adventure camp and backcountry experiences. You may want to discuss the prescriptive requirements with the specific council, camp, or program you plan to visit. WFA is the assessment of and treatment given to an ill or injured person in a remote environment where definitive care given by a physician and/or rapid transport is not readily available. Adult Scouters and youth members over the age of 14 are invited to participate in this 16 hour course and earn their certification.
A current CPR/AED certificate must be presented at the first WFA class session. If you do not have a current CPR/AED certificate, you must take session 1. This course is for those who work in non-medical fields. You must attend the entire course for certification.
Course fees cover books, course materials, and a 2 year Emergency Care and Safety Institute completion certificate for each course completed.
Wilderness First Aid is a 16 hour course. You must attend the entire course for certification. Please plan your schedule accordingly. |
