Keeping track - Protecting Children & Youth Training

Will there be a way for the ward clerks or the individual secretaries from each organization to track who has and hasn't completed the Protecting Children & Youth training? I'm currently keeping track with a google spreadsheet, because I can't find anywhere to find out who has completed the training.

There was a report that appeared briefly on LCR. As ward clerk, I could see it, but it appeared to not be capturing the data correctly. I suspect they had problems with it so pulled the code to clean it up. I expect a report WILL be available. Who will have access to it when it is released again is still not fully known. We should be patient.

It's back!

Something has been changed. On the first release our ward had 63 members/leaders that were on the list. This release shows 74. I can't say what callings have been added. But an expiration column has been added - I think.

I did notice the the EQ Presidency and RS Presidency are on the list. I don't remember if they were there before. My wife is Stake Primary President so she took the training but it doesn't show at the ward level so I suspect there is a stake report for stake callings or they don't consider stake leaders needing it is their primary role is not to work with the children. I didn't see any Seminary teachers on our list so there may be a separate Stake report for them (unless theirs is covered in the Seminary program). I took it as well but am not on the report (I am ward clerk and took it so I could help others - I didn't expect to see my name on the report).

Our Ward Primary President took it immediately when it was released and she shows as not having taken it - I will advise her to provide feedback and if that doesn't work to take it again.

I verified last evening that bishop counselors could see the report - they could not see it the first time it was released. I have not had a chance to check with anyone else in our ward.

My wife is primary president and can't see the report. It seems like it would be helpful for the primary president to have access.

That suggestion may be submitted via feedback if you wish to have it considered by those who make those decisions. (This us a user-to-user help forum.)

Your clerk can provide it filtered to just the Primary organization. No, it isn't self-help, but it isn't a huge deal. I handed each organization their reports today in ward council.

Ha! So did I! The bishopric had a perfect report, of course.

I did not see any Cub Scout Den leaders or assistant Den Leaders (Wolf Den, Bear Den, Webelos Scouts) on the report. Are the cub scout den leaders going to be added to the report?
Thank you.

Is there a way to show others on the report (anyone who has taken the training) that do not have a calling that requires the training, such has parents of youth (as suggested in the original August 16th letter from the Priesthood and Family Department)?
Thank you.

I don't think so. I took the training as ward clerk but do not show. My wife took the training - she is stake primary president. She does not show on the ward report and I have no access to see if she shows on a stake report - as a stake leader whose primary role is to work with the primary presidencies, she may not be required.

Since there will be no cub scout leaders after 12/31/2019 and since cub scout leaders are already covered under the BSA training, I would expect it was not coded into the process. I am just a clerk in Oklahoma and have no special insight into this or what is going on in SLC, but given the announced changes it would be logical to not waste programming resources on callings that are being eliminated.

In our ward, the Cub Scout and Boy Scout leaders including committee members are showing on the list of people required to do training. Also youth class presidents who are over 18 (but still in high school).

There was an update made this week to LCR that fixed the bug that was not including some Cub Scout leaders.

Both of these groups are required to complete the training.
