The LEAP24 Application System is clever enough that depending on if you are a Scout, Venturer, or Leader, you’ll all see different information during your application process.

Applications Close 12th May

Application Statuses explained

As your application progresses through, there are multiple different statuses and automatic emails you may receive. Below is a summary of the different statuses you may see:

StatusMeaning
InitialAll applications when you first apply will start at Initial. You will be unable to Submit your application and move to the Submitted status until all required fields in your application have been completed, including an ID Photo, and you have signed the Event Consent form.
SubmittedYour application has been submitted and we have received it. All that is left for you to progress to SHQ Approved is to make sure your application is fully paid, that your ID Photo meets the requirements (found below), and you maintain a valid Scouts Queensland membership.
SHQ ApprovedCongratulations! You’re application has reached the final stage in the process. You’ve been fully approved and are ready to attend LEAP24. You may still receive a further email or two once Patrol allocations have been released, and these will be visible on the Status page of your application.
SHQ RejectedYour application has been tentatively Rejected due to an issue that prevented it being Approved. We will always email you to prior to your application being moved to this status, to advise you on why this has happened. Normally it would be just because your ID Photo is invalid, or because your membership has lapsed.
Withdrawn & Not ProceedingYou will only see these Application Statuses if you have informed us that you are no longer able to attend the event.

How to apply

If you’ve never used the Queensland Activity Management System before, follow this link to see how to create an account and apply for your first event.

Once you’re logged in, it’s as easy as clicking on “Apply” next to LEAP24, and filling out the relevant sections. The eligibility page will tailor the information shown based on your Scouting role; for more regarding the events eligibility criteria, click here. The attendance page will also adjust automatically. Scouts will get asked on this page if they wish to be a Patrol Leader at the event or not, so that your Leaders know who is interested in taking charge. It also helps avoid duplicate patrols. For Venturers we don’t ask this question.

Why do Venturers see Leader pages?

Due to a system limitation the application system could only support one price point for Participants. So to have Venturers charged a different price to Scouts, they had to be created in the backend as a different staff tier. The downside was that the Leader information pages were unable to be turned off from visibility to the Venturers.

To get around this, please just enter junk information into these fields as a Venturer, as we won’t be using it for any part of the event.

It won’t let me sign the Event Consent

To sign the Event Consent form, you will need to visit the Status page first to complete the seven different permission boxes. Once these have been selected and saved, you can then return to the Event Consent page to sign and submit.

Okay cool – I’ve applied, why haven’t I been approved yet?

There are three things we look for before someone gets marked as SHQ Approved.

  1. Your application has been fully paid, not just up to date. This way we know that those who are Approved don’t have another payment still outstanding.
  2. Your Scouts Queensland Membership is current. To verify this, on the Personal page you should see a Green Tick next to your membership number. If this shows a Red Cross or a Yellow exclamation mark, there is something wrong with your membership. Speak to your Group Leader for more information.

Perfect – this helped. But I’m still confused…
