Scout Leadership Course How to Guide

All courses require resources. These include land (an area to run the event in), people (to plan, manage, deliver, set up, clear up, cater, etc.), time (to plan and to run) and usually physical things (equipment, food, vehicles, etc.).

Budgeting

Before running a course, you must do some basic figure work to test the feasibility of the event. If it is too expensive, no-one will come. If it is too cheap, how will any short-fall be covered? All accounting for District events is handled through NSW State accounts via your local Scout Region. If you do not know how to access these banking and accounting facilities, you must contact your Region Office. Handling an event totally through cash leaves you wide open for financial procedure questioning. Cover yourself.
