New Leader Essentials
is an introductory session that highlights the values, aims, history,
funding, and methods of Scouting. It addresses how these aims and methods
are reached in an age-appropriate style within Cub Scouting, Boy Scouting,
Varsity Scouting, and Venturing. Videos, discussions, and hands-on reinforcement
are presented during the 90-minute training session. Ideally, all unit-based
volunteers take this session at the same time, so they understand that
they are all striving for the same results with the youth they serve.
Each leader completes New Leader Essentials training only once.
It is recommended that this be the first training class you attend. However, if your needs are that you have to attend the specific class for your position first (due to scheduling conflicts), that is perfectly acceptable.

New Leader Essentials is the first part and is recommended to be taken before the specific classes. This training provides the specialized knowledge a new leader needs to assume a leadership role. You need attend only the specific class which matches your registered position in the pack.
Each specific class (Tiger, Wolf, Bear, Webelos, Committee) lasts approximately 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Leader Specific Training is required each time a leader changes positions within the Pack.
