The workbook which is available to support the completion of Module 2 (Personal Learning Plan) has been reviewed and updated. Previously, it was included as an appendix in the Adult’s Personal File. However, when this was reviewed ready for the new versions which launched in January 2015, it was decided to make this a separate resource. The revised workbook aims to help adults in Scouting in a new role to think about the training they may need to complete; and to facilitate conversations between them and their TA about how this will be accomplished. It talks them through the PLP process and its benefits and contains a PLP template at the end.
