Wood Badge NE VII-21 - Oct 2010

Body

Description:

Wood Badge is Scouting’s leadership training course for Scouters who are at least 18: Cub Scout/Boy Scout/Venturing leaders, Venturing youth (at least 18), district and council volunteers, and professional Scouters.

The object of a Wood Badge course is to demonstrate as practically as possible the aims and methods of Scouting. The six-day course is a multi-faceted presentation of leadership skills, organizational tools, and participatory activities based on the best of Scouting traditions and the latest team-development theory. In addition, participants enjoy the fellowship of learning alongside many other volunteer and professional Scouters, and along the way will have a great deal of fun.

Qualifications:

Each Scouter who participates in Wood Badge training must be registered in the BSA and have completed the training
appropriate to their position in Scouting. (Scoutmaster/Assistant Scoutmaster Training or Cub Leader Training - See training calendar for appropriate training dates.)

Because of the nature of the Wood Badge training, these requirements may not be waived.
