Annual Merit Badge Counselor Registration Renewal
Your MBC registration expires 12/31 every year. Don’t forget to renew it!
It’s as easy as…
-
Check your email. In November you will receive an email with a survey link, your member ID number, and which merit badges you are currently registered to teach.
-
Fill out and submit your survey between November 1st and December 1st. By completing the short survey you will be able to update your contact info, availability, add/remove merit badges, and renew your MBC commitment.
-
Reply to follow-up. You may receive follow-up communications from the merit badge approval committee. Be sure to respond promptly so that your registration does not get held up.
Please contact david.russell@scouting.org with any questions.
