Boy Scout Leader Specific Training

Boy Scout Leader Position Specific training is designed to provide training specific to each area of the Boy Scout program. These courses are taught by informed trainers who know how to engage groups and make learning fun. These courses are offered by the council as group training. Prior to taking this training, leaders should complete Youth Protection Training and This is Scouting.

Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Specific shows you how to teach boys to lead their own Troop. This course may be presented in one six-hour session or in three shorter sessions on different days.

The three sessions will cover:

• The role of a Scoutmaster in a Boy-Led troop
• Lighting the Fire: The Outdoor Program and the Advancement Program
• Keeping it going: Program Planning and Troop Administration

In addition, each session provides training specific to that leader position. If you are entering a different position in the Troop, attend the Position Specific Training for that position.
