National Youth Leadership Training is an exciting, action-packed program
designed for councils to provide youth members with leadership skills and
experience they can use in their home troops and in other situations
demanding leadership of self and others.
The NYLT course centers around the concepts of what a leader must BE,
what he must KNOW, and what he must DO. The key elements are then taught
with a clear focus on HOW TO. The skills come alive during the week as the
patrol goes on a Quest for the Meaning of Leadership.
NYLT is a two-weekend course. Content is delivered in a troop and patrol
outdoor setting with an emphasis on immediate application of learning in a
fun environment. Interconnecting concepts and work processes are introduced
early, built upon, and aided by the use of memory aids, which allows
participants to understand and employ the leadership skills much faster.
Built on the legacy of past JLT successes, the new NYLT integrates the
best of modern leadership theory with the traditional strengths of the
Scouting experience. Through activities, presentations, challenges,
discussions, and audio-visual support, NYLT participants will be engaged in
a unified approach to leadership that will give them the skill and
confidence to lead well. Through a wide range of activities, games, and
adventures, participants will work and play together as they put into action
the best Scouting has to offer.
Participants are expected to be in full scout uniform.
The N.Y.L.T. training syllabus includes: Vision-Goal Planning; Teaching
Skills; Stages of Team Development; and Conflict Resolution.
2010 Tuition was $225. A $75 deposit is required for registration.
The course is
open to Scouts who are between 13 and 17 years of age and at least First
Class. For further information, please contact Mr. Fred Gervat,
Course Director, at fgervat gmail.com
