How To Register Your Brigade Unit

Welcome!

Unit registration

We want to make your unit registration as easy as possible. You are either here to:

First Time Unit Registration

If your Unit has never been registered on Brigade Leader, EVEN IF YOU’VE BEEN A UNIT FOR DECADES, then this is the button you want to click

Renew Your Unit

If you’ve already registered your Unit ON BRIGADE LEADER IN A PREVIOUS YEAR then you should renew below.

Here's what to do to renew:

We’re glad you’re here to renew, but we don’t recognize you as being a part of a current unit here on brigade leader. Only the unit registrar, usually the person who first registered your unit, can renew your unit. So one of these things is true. Figure out which one is true so we can get you registered!

Find out who the Unit Registrar is

Only the Unit Registrar can register the unit. Use this helpful lookup tool to verify who can register the unit. If you don't know your Unit Number reach out to someone in your Church's Brigade Unit or contact our National Office for help.

If that's you but under a different email address

Logout and then log back in under the correct account

If It's someone else

If you recognize the name or email address then contact that person to have them register the Unit

If you need to become the UInuit Registrar

You'll need to contact us and we can make the change right away.

Unit Registration and Renewal

Should I Renew or Register?

Renew if: you’ve already registered here on brigade Leader. All your previous year’s information will be carried through.

Register if: your Unit has never been registered here on Brigade Leader, EVEN IF YOU’VE BEEN A UNIT FOR DECADES, register here so your unit and all it’s information will be saved in our system for easy future renewal.
How much does it cost?
The cost is the same to register for the first time or to renew your unit membership. We have tiered pricing based on the number of leaders you have in your unit.

When Registering:
- Select the “unit size” drop-down with the number of leaders you aticipate in your unit
- On the next page you will see the pricing based on the tier chosen
When Renewing:
- If you are renewing you will be automatically given the same tier you had last year.
- If you need to decrease or increase the tier please register and then let us know you need to change and we will make the change on the backend for you and will refund or charge the difference depending on your need.
Unit Registrar? Who has permission to renew my unit?

The “Unit Registrar” is the only member of your unit who can renew the unit. This is usually the person who did the original unit registration.

You can find out who the Unit registrar is by entering your unit number in the serch box at the bottom of the renew section. If you don’t recognize the results, the Unit Registrar is often the Unit Chairman, or a key leader, or a church staff person.
