Training shows new leaders how to do their jobs and allows for an interchange of ideas with more experienced leaders. Every Cub Scout deserves qualified, trained leaders who will provide the best program possible, the way it is intended. Trained leaders ensure that the goals of Cub Scouting are met. The leadership training program of the Boy Scouts of America provides this information and helps leaders become confident in carrying out their responsibilities.

Cub Scout Leader Fast Start

As the first step in the training continuum, Fast Start Training is meant to provide all the information and resources for new leaders to conduct their first meeting, along with guidance for the meetings that follow.

Basic Leader Training
Basic Leader Training—including This Is Scouting and position-specific training—is designed to prepare to all adult leaders in Cub Scouting to become effective in their roles.

Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation (BALOO) 

Basic Adult Leader Outdoor Orientation is a one-day training event that introduces the skills needed to plan and conduct pack outdoor activities.

Youth Protection Training

Every leader in Cub Scouting should complete Youth Protection training, which provides essential information about working with youth.
