2026 Winter Wood Badge Training Course

Wood Badge is Scouting's premier training course. It's the ultimate leadership training experience designed to meet the leadership needs for all Cub Scout, Scouts BSA, Venturing, Sea Scout and Exploring leaders as well as council and district leaders and Scouting professionals. Lord Baden-Powell originally designed it so that Scouters could learn, in as practical a way possible, the skills and methods of Scouting. It is first and foremost, learning by doing.

Wood Badge has evolved into the core leadership skills training course for Scouting America. The Wood Badge course focuses on strengthening every volunteer's ability to work with and lead groups of youth and adults and is less focused on outdoor skills, which are more effectively addressed in other courses.

 

Learning Objectives

As a result of attending Wood Badge training, participants will do the following:

* Acquire an understanding that Scouting is a family of interrelated, values-based programs providing age-appropriate activities for youth.

* Appreciate that the course models good Scouting America programs and proven methods for helping young people grow to be responsible citizens.

* Experience the stages of team development and practice leadership approaches appropriate for those stages.

* Assess their own leadership knowledge and skills to consider the strengths and preferences in their own leadership style.

* Understand how Scouting’s methods uniquely meet the needs and preferred learning styles of youth. This understanding helps develop knowledge, skills, and attitudes that prepare youth to be successful adults and active citizens, with the character and sense of personal responsibility that ensures leadership for the future of our nation.

* Have a great deal of fun in the company of interesting, talented, and diverse adults who care about the learning and growth of young people.

* Develop a renewed commitment to provide Scouting with the best possible leadership
