Reflecting the best of nearly a century of Scouting experience, Wood Badge draws upon the most current leadership models used by corporate America, academic circles and successful organizations throughout the country. 

Next Level Leadership

Wood Badge training started by Baden Powell in 1919 as a way to insure that the leaders of Scout troops were properly trained. Since then Wood Badge has been held worldwide, providing advanced leadership training to thousands of Scout leaders. 

Wood Badge builds upon the best traditions and experiences of the Boy Scouts of America and also draws from a wide range of courses within and beyond the bounds of Scouting to present the latest in leadership theory and team development. This training is perfect for any adult Scout leader, in any registered position in Scouting. 

Participants Must:

• Must attend both weekends to complete the course.
• Be registered members of the Boy Scouts of America. (Youth 18 and older may attend as long as the appropriate Youth Protection guidelines are followed. They do not need to be registered in an adult leadership role.)
• Have completed the basic training courses for their Scouting position.
• Be capable of functioning safely in an outdoor environment.
• All participants are required to complete the Annual Health and Medical Record form.
