Scoutmaster/Assistant Scoutmaster Leader Specific Training (S24)

Course Objectives

Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Leader Specific Training is for all Scoutmasters and their assistants. This training is divided into four parts. The first three parts concentrate on troop operation and can be completed in one full day or three evenings. The fourth part, which focuses on outdoor skills, lasts approximately a day and a half, depending on the skill level of the new leader.

To be considered "trained" by BSA, the Boy Scout Leader must complete Youth Protection Training (renewed every two years), this class, and Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills (offered as a separate class).

As a result of this course, participants will be able to:

• Have the confidence that being a Scoutmaster is a manageable challenge.
• Understand that they have abundant available resources.
• Know that the structure of the Boy Scouts of America ensures that they are part of a supportive team working to deliver the promise of Scouting to the youth of America.
• Have a short action plan to apply what they have learned during the three sessions of Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Leader Specific Training.

Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Leader Specific Training is for all Scoutmasters and their assistants. Boy Scout leaders also must complete Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills training to be considered fully trained.
