One of the keys to a successful Scouting experience for young people, second only to the selection of the right person for each responsibility, is trained volunteer leadership. Leadership training provides adult leaders with fundamental information about the aims and methods of the movement, as well as specifics about their particular roles in Scouting.

For this reason, the Simon Kenton Council is committed to providing top quality training opportunities for leaders, parents and scouts at the district and council levels. Through these efforts, the delivery of a better and quality Scouting program can be provided to our entire youth membership.

The leadership training philosophy of the Boy Scouts of America is to provide adult leaders with fundamental information about the aims and purposes of the movement, as well as specifics about their particular roles in Scouting.

There are four levels of training.

Fast Start training is designed to be used at the point of recruitment, and provides a basic orientation to the programs of the Boy Scouts of America.

Basic leader training courses are designed to give job-related information to all Scouting volunteers, regardless of position, within a given program. Adult leaders are considered trained, and eligible to wear the "Trained" emblem, after completing basic leader training for their positions.

Supplemental training courses are designed to expand on the material of basic leader training courses, by focusing on specific topics in greater depth.
