Membership System Updates 2024
May 2024
Email the county membership systems coordinator
Young leaders (YLs) and young external volunteers (YEVs) with no email
Please ensure that all young leaders and young external volunteers have a valid email address. When their role is created their record is split off from any parent record and in the process the email address for the parent is removed. Commissioners must then add the young volunteers own email address. Without an email address they will not be able to create their logins to GO and the learning platform, and without which they will not be able to do their a safe space training.
GO login problems
There have been a lot of problems with the introduction of the new login system for GO and the learning platform. Hopefully these have been rectified now. Please, do let the county membership systems coordinator know if you are still experiencing problems.
April 2024
Old leadership qualification (LQ) roles to be deactivated
Please be aware that leader in training roles will be being deactivated from 12 April, and the volunteer given a unit helper role, if they were originally following the old LQ course and are not now enrolled on the newer leader development programme (LDP) course.
LQ mentor and LQ coordinator roles will also be deactivated from this date if not done already. This does not affect LDP mentor roles.
New process for returning leaders
From 12 April, there will be a new process for returning leaders after 3+ years. Once the learning identified by a mentor (changing section training, programme update, leader top-up e-learning etc.) has been completed, commissioners add the new ‘Returning leader after 3+ years’ course on GO to reinstate a person’s leader role.
Commissioner training
If any commissioners would like to have a one-to-one (or two where roles are joint) GO training please contact the county membership systems coordinator on [email protected]. Please give suggestions as to the best days/times for you.
