Adult Leadership Training: iOLS // NRA:RSO
Registration ends Friday 01-08-2021 11:59 PM.
The expected training for BSA Assistant Scoutmasters is Youth Protection, Scoutmaster Specific Training (either classroom or series of online classes), Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills (IOLS), and Hazardous Weather. Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills is only one that has to be a hands-on experience to ensure the concepts are learned.
IOLS will be offered concurrently during the January 15-17 Winter Camp at Camp Davy Crockett. It is the last requirement needed for being “Trained” by Browning, Howard, Reed, S. and J. White. This course and Hazardous Weather are needed by Dunnivant, Peters, and Schaefer to complete their initial training.
In the Journey to Excellence metrics for troop performance, Silver level for Trained Leadership targets at least 60% of the assistants have completed the position-specific training. Troop 48 just needed seven more adults to achieve this rating, which would also attain the Gold standard since our Troop Committee is trained and multiple adult leaders have taken the Wood Badge course.
Consider this opportunity in January (or in June at summer camp) to help maintain the high standards for working with Troop 48 scouts.

In addition, the teaching methods, activities, and games model the variety of teaching used in effective and engaging Scouting programs.
