To Schedule:

To purchase courses as an individual, please login or create a free account to access your Girl Scout dashboard. Girl Scouts may enroll at any time by purchasing badge courses. As Girl Scouts advance through their badgework, progress is saved and shared with the council. Once all required badgework is completed, a Certificate of Completion will appear under the My Certificates tab.

If you are a troop leader and would like to bulk enroll your entire troop, download the Troop Enrollment Form on the website and email the completed form to contact@victreefi.com. Payment can be made by credit card online. We recommend that Girl Scouts complete badgework prior to planned troop meetings, with discussion of key takeaways occurring at the next troop meeting. Email contact@victreefi.com for more information about discussion guides.
