1. Check the competency that has been completed (whether at home, school, or elsewhere). e.g. 1.1
2. A dialog will appear to the right. Check Ready to Demonstrate.
Note that the competency is now marked with a special checkmark and question symbol. This indicates that the youth is ready to show their leaders (Scouters and/or youth) that they have completed this requirement.
Some Scouting Groups test badge requirements at all meetings, some only at particular meetings. Depending upon how your Scouting Group works, the badge requirement may automatically be tested at the next meeting, or you may get an email asking that the requirement be demonstrated at a certain future meeting. Some Groups will only test for a badge when all the requirements are ready.
OPTIONAL: To see details about what will be tested, select the Show Details link.
The requirements can be seen.
