The Den Chief Conference is a ½ day event that provides Den Chiefs with the knowledge, skills, and understanding to fully enjoy their role, and provide the best possible service to the Cub Scout dens they work with. Den Chief Conference training is available through the districts and at the Leadership University in March. Introduction to Troop Leadership Skills for Troops (ILST): Youth leadership training starts in the Troop. ILST is given primarily by the Scoutmaster and the senior Patrol leader to all the youth leaders in their Troop. At the end of ILST, all of the Troop leaders will understand what is expected from them in their new leadership position. They will better understand the roles of each member of the leadership team (at the Patrol and Troop levels) and will learn to work toward a common vision of future success. They will learn that putting others first as a leadership style builds a strong and effective team. Upon completion of this training, the "Trained" patch may be worn below the youth leader's badge of office. Completion of ILST prepares the youth to attend National Youth Leadership Training. National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT): National Youth Leadership Training is a leadership development course designed by Boy Scouts of America to enable Scouting youth to lead their Scouting organization. NYLT uses the methods of Scouting to teach leadership skills. A week is spent in an environment that exemplifies the "best" that Scouting can be and is the vision that Baden Powell intended. Youth will experience a "boy led Troop" as the program is run by youth. This course is intended for Senior Patrol Leaders, Patrol Leaders, Instructors, and Troop Guides. It is open to Scouts who are 13 years of age, have achieved the rank of First Class, and are recommended by their Scoutmasters. Seneca Waterways Council operates one of the largest and most successful programs in the Northeast Region at the Walmsley Sawyer Training Center, located at Camp Cutler. Seneca Waterways Council employs the national program to deliver NYLT courses each summer. Each course is limited to 48 participants to maintain the quality of the program. National Advanced Youth Leader Experience (NAYLE): The National Advanced Youth Leadership Experience is offered by the Philmont Training Center and based at the Rocky Mountain Scout Camp. This camp is designed to provide youth leaders with a Philmont based wilderness encounter that motivates them to follow a life of helping others succeed based on the values expressed in the Scout Oath and Law. The Philmont leadership is committed to making NAYLE a very special experience. During NAYLE, Scouts live in a Patrol setting at Rocky Mountain Scout Camp, where they use leadership skills to resolve exciting and challenging backcountry situations. This week will conclude with a closing challenge for each Scout to build upon the Legacy of Waite Phillips, the benefactor of the Philmont Scout Ranch. NAYLE will equip youth leaders to be better Troop Leaders, NYLT staff members and/or superior camp staff. It will help guide a Scouts’ journey in leadership service to others. It provides life skills for now and the future. 60 60 TRAINING FOR SCOUTERS (ADULT LEADERS) Fast Start is a 20 minute training available online at Days of Training: Many Districts in the Council sponsor www.myscouting.org
