Scoutmaster/Assistant Scoutmaster Position-Specific Training (classroom component) – At October Roundtable

Scoutmaster Position-Specific training is the BSA’s initial level of training for the top leaders of Boy Scout troops. It is designed for Scoutmasters, assistant Scoutmasters, and junior assistant Scoutmasters. However, committee members and other adults connected to a Boy Scout troop are welcome to attend.

When Scoutmaster Position-Specific training AND Introduction to Outdoor Leader Skills (IOLS) have BOTH been completed, new Scoutmasters will have the tools needed to begin an effective Boy Scouting program.  Both  classes are required to meet the Journey 2.0 “Position-Trained” requirement deadline of October 31, 2016.
