Adult Leader Training Green_Trained_Patch

Every youth deserves a trained leader.

The Armadillo District offers courses to teach leaders about Scouting, how to manage their pack or troop, learn who does what, plus skills courses. Several introductory courses are available online while in-depth role-specific sessions are offered in a workshop format for all volunteers. Courses are taught by experienced leaders who provide real world dialogue to complement a professionally developed curriculum from BSA.

Most courses are offered semi-annually at the Armadillo District's Day of Training in spring and fall. Check the Armadillo District Calendar or follow the links below to see what is available for you. Optional training dates may be available in nearby Districts via the Capitol Area Council website.
