  2. Obtain a unit ID code from the council. The unit advancement processor attends the September roundtable, and can obtain the unit ID code there.  In the meantime the Council will have sent the ID code to the Unit Leader.
  3. Gather information for advancement, including merit badge applications and advancement records with dates.
  4. Click Internet Advancement on this page. Follow the instructions in Internet Advancement to process advancements and print an advancement report.
  5. Have the appropriate people sign the printed unit advancement report and submit it to the council. Save a copy for your files.
    Units should submit monthly before the end of each month, or more often if needed. In December, submit a report before the end of the month to update unit and council statistics.

Training

The September roundtables will feature orientation on Internet Advancement. Each unit must select an adult to be its advancement processor, and this adult should attend the training. Additionally, anyone who wants to learn more about Internet Advancement can review the help information.
