Get Trained at University of Scouting

Every Scout deserves a trained leader

You've heard it many times and the University of Scouting is the premier training event for adult leaders offered by the Crossroads of America Council. It is designed to supplement the educational experience of any Scouting leader.

On any average year, the university offers 80 to 100 different courses, from outdoor skills such as knot tying to group management concepts to keep that unruly den of Scouts on task. The University of Scouting has courses for everyone from first-time leaders to experienced leaders planning a high-adventure expedition.

Here is what you can look forward to at this year’s University of Scouting:

  • Leader Specific Training for scouting positions
  • Eagle Mentor Training will be helpful for those who are an ES mentor in their unit 
    • Learn how to make an Eagle Scout project great!
  • Many other classes to help youth and leaders learn skills in presenting the adventure of Scouting
  • Seeing other scouting friends from the Council.
