The purpose of the Trainer’s EDGE course is to provide and help develop the platform skills of a trainer.
Only practice can polish these skills, but this course focuses on training behaviors and resources while offering hands-on experience in methods and media.
Trainer's EDGE is recommended for:
- Wood Badge & NYLT staff (Required)
- Unit and District Trainers
- Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, and Venturing Advisors
- Exploring and Venturing Youth Leaders
- And others interested in improving their training and presentation skills.
Attendance is expected both days to receive credit for this training!
Presenters of all levels and skills are welcome and expected to attend. This training does not have an expiration date; practice makes for a more knowledgeable and experienced trainer. Participants will have the opportunity to be in front of a small group, which will offer feedback that will help improve skills as a trainer.
Likewise, each person will provide the gift of feedback for other presenters in a positive, helpful way. Be prepared to come present a 7-10 minute presentation on any Scouting material (including Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venturing and Exploring) on the evening of March 31. More details in the first session.
- Youth and adults will be attending and staffing this course, unless otherwise noted.
- Please wear your full field uniform for this training event.
- All participants must bring own lunch. Coffee and snacks will be provided
Presenting is important, but a good trainer is more than a good presenter. A good trainer imparts knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors in a classroom
