National Youth Leadership Training

Event Details

NYLT is an exciting and powerful program designed to provide members of the Scouting America with lifetime leadership skills and experience they can use to lead themselves and others. This week-long course represents a month in the life of a model Scout unit, using the linked troop model. Participants must be able to attend the entire week. This course is designed to complement leadership training at the unit level and is a follow on to ILST.

Per BSA National Policy to attend NYLT:

Venturers and Sea Scouts (male and female) must fall within the maximum age allowance for their program. They must have completed Introduction to Leadership Skills for Crews or Ships. It is recommended (but not required) that they have had at least one year of camping experience.
