Cub Scout Leader Training

Cub Scout Leader Training begins with the existing Fast Start Training and Youth Protection Training, continues through New Leader Essentials, and is followed by Leader Specific training for each adult's role in the unit.

Here is a brief overview of the components of the training continuum.

Fast Start Training (click for more information - new window on National site)
Fast Start training is the first step for any new volunteer and is to be delivered immediately after a new leader registers and before he or she meets with any youth member.
Basic Leader Training (click for more information - new window on National site)
The new Basic Leader Training comprises two parts: New Leader Essentials for all unit-level leaders and Leader Specific training, which is based on the leader's unit-level position.
Leader-Specific Training (click for more information - new window on National site)
These training courses include leader specific training for Cub Scout, Boy Scout, and Venturing leaders; an introduction to outdoor leader skills; and the new Wood Badge course

Fast Start and Youth Protection Training are avaliable online at the BSA Online Train Center
