    Youth Protection Training:
      This training covers the BSA's Youth Protection policies, kinds of abuse, signs of abuse, how to respond to disclosure of abuse, and proper reporting procedures. It does so by taking you through situations that require choices and produce consequences.

    This is Scouting:
     

    This for all new leaders in Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting, Varsity Scouting, and Venturing. It is an online interactive learning experience that is divided into six modules. It picks up where Fast Start left off and introduces participants to the following areas of the Scouting program: Mission, Vision, and Values; Programs for All Ages and Abilities; Scouting Is Fun!; Scouting in the Community; Protecting Our Youth; and Scouting’s Legacy.

    This training is offered through the Online Learning Center website.

    University of Scouting:
             
     

    University of Scouting is a multitude of specialty sessions to help you gain new skills and abilities to become the very best Scout Leader possible.  Experienced Scout Leaders from across the Council make up the staff.  They are all volunteers, just like you, and they want to help you.  There are courses for all types of Scout Leaders - Cub Scout College, Boy Scout College, and College of General Studies.

    This training is offered every two years.

    Safe Swim Defense: 
     

    Before a BSA group may engage in swimming activities of any kind, a minimum of one adult leader must complete Safe Swim Defense training, have a commitment card with them, and agree to use the eight defenses in this plan.

    This training is offered through the Online Learning Center website.

    Safety Afloat:
      Safety Afloat has been developed to promote boating and boating safety and to set standards for safe unit activity afloat. Before a BSA group may engage in an excursion, expedition, or trip on the water (canoe, raft, sailboat, motorboat, rowboat, tube, or other craft), adult leaders for such activity must complete Safety Afloat Training, have a commitment card with them, and be dedicated to full compliance with all nine points of Safety Afloat.

    This training is offered through the Online Learning Center website.
    Wood Badge:
     

    Wood Badge combines a leadership development program with the opportunity to sharpen personal outdoor/camping skills, open to all Scout Leaders who meet minimum requirements. The leadership skills one learns in Wood Badge are not only applicable to Scouting, but also to the growth of the individual and the roles in life they fill, professionally and at home.  To the Scout Leader, Wood Badge often makes the difference between offering a mere form of entertainment — or providing a program which will have a profound influence on the lives of boys and girls.
