Internet Advancement
Internet Advancement makes it easy for unit leadership to record awards, ranks, and merit badges to youth via an online process. At any time during the year, the unit advancement chairman will be able to record advancements to youth member records. And, they’ll also be able to print a unit roster at any time. The roster is the most current information from ScoutNET, and it will include the person ID for each adult and youth member.
Here’s how it works: Your unit should assign an adult to record advancements. Click on the “Internet Advancement” link and begin using the system. The user will be asked some simple contact information including a Unit Number and ID Code which you receive from the HOOC office.
Ranks must be recorded in the correct rank and date sequence. Only the Eagle Scout rank cannot be awarded by this process and will continue being handled as it has been. Awards to be entered will not include nominated awards, such as those for meritorious action, and awards that are controlled by other organizations, even if approved for uniform wear.
