LEADER SPECIFIC STRAINING

Once a volunteer has a solid overview of the BSA's values-based program, he or she can begin training for a specific Scouting position through Leader Specific training. This training provides the specialized knowledge a new leader needs to assume a leadership role. Because each course is designed for a specific leadership position, the training time varies. Leader Specific training has been developed for the following positions and their assistants:

• Tiger Cub den leaders - 2 hours, 35 minutes
• Cub Scout den leaders - 2 hours, 40 minutes
• Webelos den leaders - 2 hours, 55 minutes
