This course is intended for every adult
leader in every Boy Scout Troop. It is
designed to provide a working knowledge of
the basic outdoor skills necessary to
succeed as a Scoutmaster or Assistant
Scoutmaster. Outdoor skills are critical to
the success of the Scouting program, and
Outdoor Leader Skills will provide leaders
with the basic outdoor skills information
needed to start or maintain a quality
program.
Outdoor Leader Skills is the required
outdoor training for all Scoutmasters,
Assistant Scoutmasters, and Varsity Coaches.
The skills taught are based on the outdoor
skills found in The Boy Scout Handbook. The
course is also ideal for Venturing leaders

conducting outdoor camping experiences. |
