 The training program consists of these levels: 
 Fast Start Orientation: a quick overview designed to immediately orient leaders to their Scouting
                                    role before their first meeting with youth. These courses consist of a brief video presentation, a Viewer Guide, and a visit
                                    from an experienced volunteer. Many units own copies of the video and have experienced volunteers available to train others.
                                    The video can also be borrowed from the council service center.
 
 New Leader Essentials:
                                    a course designed for all Scouting volunteers that provides the basics of the Scouting programs, the age-appropriateness of
                                    those programs, and Scoutings values and methods.
 
 Leader Specific Training: a set
                                    of instructor-led courses designed to provide in-depth information for a new leader in a specific leadership position. These
                                    courses include Cub Scout Leader Training, Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Training, Troop Committee Training, and Adult
                                    Venturing Leader Training.
 
 Supplemental Training: a variety of specialized courses
                                    designed to provide continuous learning in specific areas of Scouting. These courses vary greatly in content, and are usually
                                    designed for leaders who have already participated in the appropriate Leader Specific Training for their positions.
 Advanced Training: Wood Badge is the advanced training program for all Scouting
                                    leaders. It is an intensive learning experience focusing on leadership skills and their application.
 Youth Training: Several courses are available for youth leadership in Boy Scouting
                                    and Venturing. Training may be position-specific or more general.
 
 Youth Protection Training:
                                    This 90-minute course is available to all leaders, parents, and interested adults. The course is designed to help adults learn
                                    how to recognize and protect children from abuse. Retake this training every 2 years.

                  | Training Roadmap |  
                  | A specific set of training experiences has been designed for each Scouting leadership position. To find
                  which courses you should take, find your position in the left column of the table below. If you change positions in the future
                  (for example, if you are now a Cub Scout Den Leader and you become a Webelos Den Leader), you should refer to this chart to
                  determine which new training you will need. 
 You should plan to participate in Fast Start, New Leader Essentials, and
                  Leader Specific Training for your position as soon as possible after you volunteer. You are also strongly encouraged to participate
                  in supplemental training, and to consider advanced training when your experience warrants.
