Learning is a lifetime activity. As commissioners, we must continually adjust our skills to provide a more valuableservice to our units, district and council. Therefore, commission1ers should view learning as an important part of
their Scouting lives - every month, every year. Persons partici ating at our college typically enjoy the fellowship,fun and education offered in a concise course of study that one may build upon each year as you gain experience
in your commissioner position(s). This event also provides an 0 portunity to network with other volunteers andprofessional leaders (perhaps the most valuable resource that ne can have/use throughout the program year).
