Training
The leadership training philosophy of the Boy Scouts of America is to provide adult leaders with fundamental information about the aims and purposes of the movement, as well as specific about their particular roles in Scouting.
A trained leader is knowledgeable and confident in the role being performed. The knowledge and confidence of a trained leader are quickly sensed by Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts or Venturers and are a positive influence on their lives.
Every Youth Deserves a Trained Leader!

The training program meets the needs of leaders by providing learning opportunities related to each of the adult positions. The plan allows for both individual and group training experiences.
