New adults joining Scouting must take the full SYT course, about 90 minutes. SYT is valid for 1 year. When it is time to take it again, you can take the SYT Refresher course, about 20 minutes.
— If you have not taken the full 90 minute course, you must take that before you can take the refresher to get full SYT credit.
— If your SYT is expired for 30 days or more, you must take the full 90 minute course again.
— If you fail the course quiz on the refresher course with less than 80% on your first attempt, you will be directed back to the full 90 minute course.
