Sign-Up to Become an ECSI Education Center
The national agreement between BSA and ECSI gives each unit, district, or council the ability to act as a stand-alone emergency care training center. With this independence, BSA staff and volunteers can teach emergency care courses as needed within their local scouting chapter. The process to become a new Education Center with ECSI is easy. If you would like to sign up your unit, district, or council as a brand-new ECSI Education Center, follow these three simple steps:

Receive your approval e-mail notification from our Membership Office and finalize your acceptance by purchasing a Teaching Package for the course(s) you wish to teach. Unlike some other organizations that require costly instructor materials for every instructor, we require only that a single Teaching Package be purchased for your new Education Center—regardless of how many instructors plan to use it!* The decision to buy additional Teaching Packages is all yours. |
* Once a new ECSI Education Center is approved, additional instructors may apply to teach for that Education Center. |
Complete the ECSI Education Center application now to get started. If you have any questions about the application or sign-up process, please contact the ECSI Membership Office at 1-800-716-7264.
