Internet Advancement:  This course provides an online process for unit leadership to record awards, ranks, and merit badges for your Cub Scout, Boy Scout and Venturer units.  This system has the most current information stored from SCOUTNET and although separate from Internet Re-chartering, uses a similar concept.  The Unit advancement person will be able to record advancements to youth member records and print an official Unit Advancement Report to be signed and submitted to the NCAC (or Scout Shop) office.  Additional reports available are a unit roster (with PID numbers), Unit Advancement Summary, Awards Summary (a shopping list) and an Advancement Update Summary.  Using the Internet Advancement program is not voluntary, it must be used to record your unit’s advancement and obtain rank badges.
