Internet Rechartering

What are the benefits of Internet Rechartering? There are two key benefits from using Internet Rechartering:

• More accurate member data, and


• Freeing up of scarce council resources.

These benefits are really two sides of the same coin. Moving some of the data entry for charter renewal from the council to the unit leads to more accurate member data (because a unit member is entering the information). Also, the council will need to only double-check and potentially edit the submitted Internet Rechartering data before it is posted to PAS (Program Administration System within the Boy Scout Network).

What can I NOT do in Internet Rechartering?
Internet Rechartering is only for charter renewal. New charters cannot be established through Internet Rechartering. Internet Rechartering is for traditional units only – Packs, Troops, Teams, Crews, and Ships.

What do users need to use Internet Rechartering?
Internet Rechartering was designed to accommodate the widest variety of users without a need for specific training. The users of Internet Rechartering should have a basic knowledge of Boy Scouts of America terminology and familiarity with a computer and the World Wide Web. Internet Rechartering contains an optional tutorial that will walk users through each step. Internet Rechartering will require that the user have access to a computer with a 56 KB or faster Internet connection and a browser that is IE 5.5 or greater.
