Leadership Training

One of the keys to a successful Scouting experience for young people, second only to the selection of the right person for each responsibility, is trained volunteer leadership. Leadership training provides adult leaders with fundamental information about the aims and methods of the movement, as well as specifics about their particular roles in Scouting.

For this reason, the Coronado Council has adopted a Mandatory Training Policy for all direct contact leaders.  By 2013, all direct contact leaders must be fully trained in order to recharter with their unit.  This new policy will be rolled out in stages beginning with Cubmasters, Scoutmasters, Varsity Team Coaches, and Crew Advisors in 2010.

Effective June 1, 2010, Youth Protection Training is mandatory for all registered volunteers.  See policy for details.

 The Coronado Council is committed to provide top quality training opportunities for leaders, parents and Scouts at the district and council levels. Through these efforts, the delivery of a better and quality Scouting program can be provided to our entire youth membership.
