Baden-Powell National Youth Leadership Training |
 |
Come join us this summer for the Scout Leadership experience of a lifetime.
What is National Youth Leadership Training?
National Youth Leadership Training Course (NYLT) is an opportunity for all Junior Leaders in the Scout Troop, Varsity Team or Venture Crew to learn how to be effective leaders in their unit. Young men learn Leadership Skills while participating as temporary members of a training troop or team.
NYLT is complimentary to the Wood Badge adult leadership course. Every Scout Unit should have trained adults and youth leaders for efficient unit operations and optimum youth development.
Baden Powell:
The NYLT- Baden-Powell (NYLT-BP) course is for Scouts from 13 through 17 years of age. NYLT-BP courses take place in the Training Area at Camp Morrison on the East side of Payette Lake, 3 miles east of McCall, Idaho. The setting is similar to Scout Camp, but instead of merit badge classes, Leadership Skills are taught using the patrol method while playing Scouting Games, using Scout Skills, and while participating in fun activities.
There are 2 NYLT-BP courses scheduled so that a participant may schedule camps and his family's summer vacation. The 2 NYLT-BP courses take place over a 6-day period Monday morning to Saturday afternoon. Each session is conducted by a well-trained staff who practice the leadership skills they teach. The participants experience these leadership skills in action and learn the patrol method taught by Baden-Powell himself.
No local unit adult leadership is required for the courses. The entire program is directed by the Council approved adult and youth volunteer staff The staff is trained to present the NYLT Courses.
REQUIREMENTS:
A participant must:
- Be registered with the Boy Scouts of America
- Be at least a 1st Class Scout
- Have attended at least 1 long-term camp.

- NYLT-Baden Powell requires a BSA Class 1 & 2 Medical Form #34414. Each participant will need a list of equipment and a medical form prior to their course. The medical form may be reused if issued within the last 3 years (doctor's signature and date).
