National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is an exciting, action-packed program designed to provide youth with leadership skills and experience that they can apply within their troops and in other situations requiring leadership of self and others.
NYLT is a six-day course that emphasizes hands-on learning in a fun, engaging environment. Through a blend of activities, presentations, challenges, discussions, and games, participants will develop confidence and leadership abilities while working together as a team.
The course content is designed to build leadership concepts progressively, using practical exercises to reinforce learning. Participants embark on a Quest for the Meaning of Leadership, which brings the leadership lessons to life as they apply their skills throughout the course.
Participants must be at least 13 years old, First Class [for Scouts BSA] and have their Scoutmaster or Venture Crew Adviser approval. They should have completed Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops (ILST) or Crews (ILSC) at their units.
