Parts A and B are to be
completed at least annually by participants in all Scouting events. This health
history, parental/guardian informed consent and hold harmless/release agreement,
and talent release statement is to be completed by the participant and
parents/guardians.
Part C is the physical exam that is required for participants in any event that exceeds 72 consecutive hours,
for all high-adventure base participants, or when the nature of the activity is strenuous and demanding. Service
projects or work weekends may fit this description. Part C is to be completed and signed by a certified and
licensed heath-care provider—physician (MD or DO), nurse practitioner, or physician assistant. It is important
to note that the height/weight limits must be strictly adhered to when the event will take the unit more than
30 minutes away from an emergency vehicle–accessible roadway, or when the program requires it, such as
backpacking trips, high-adventure activities, and conservation projects in remote areas.
Part D is required to be reviewed by all participants of a high-adventure program at one of the national high adventure
bases and shared with the examining health-care provider before completing Part C.

YOUTH PROTECTION The BSA places the greatest
importance on creating the most secure environment possible for
our youth members. All Boy Scout adult volunteers should take
this course. It covers the BSA's Youth Protection policies,
kinds of abuse, signs of abuse, how to respond to disclosure of
abuse, and proper reporting procedures. It does so by taking
you through situations that require choices and produce
consequences. Successful completion of this course requires an
80 percent or higher score. If you take this test as a
registered member of the BSA and designate your local council,
your completion will be reported back to your council to adjust
your training records. You'll also be offered a certificate of
completion. BSA Youth Protection Training On-Line
