Leader Training

The Boy Scouts of America has created an online training center to help Scout Leaders get a fast start with some of the needed training to provide you a foundation in your role of helping our youth. Registration is required so that credit is correctly given for completed training. At the BSA Online Learning site the Youth Protection Training and Cub Scout Leader Fast Start Training can be obtained.

Additionally the Dan Beard Council offers certified training throughout the year. Courses offered include:

• Basic Leader Training - New Leader Essentials and Leader Specific Training
• Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO)
• Outdoor Leader Skills for Webelos Leaders
• Wood Badge Advanced Training
• University of Scouting (Yearly)
• Blue Jacket District Roundtables (2^nd Wednesday of each month)

See the Dan Beard Council Training site and calendar for upcoming training opportunities.
