National Youth Leadership Training

National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is the current youth leadership training offered by Scouting America. It is conducted at the council level for members of the Scouts BSA, Venturing, and Sea Scout programs, which are open to youth of all genders. NYLT is part of the national organization's leadership training program and is similar to Woodbadge, which is Scouting America’s program for adult leadership training. Instead of Adult Leaders conducting the training, the course is operated by youth staff, and adults serve as advisors.
