Philmont Training Center - Special Course - Developing Supplemental Training

[NeilLup]

There is a special course scheduled this summer at Philmont Training Center which should be of real interest to Boy Scout trainers and leaders.

 

This course, "Developing Supplemental Training" is designed for leaders who are involved in writing, developing and/or putting on training programs in their council. It will cover the principles of supplemental training and talk about how such training should be designed and conducted and evaluated for quality and effectiveness Then there will be the opportunity to actually write, put on, and critique units of supplemental training.

 

No promises, but some of the units of supplemental training developed in this course last summer are scheduled to be included in the recommended Boy Scout training of the BSA.

 

The course is early at PTC, June 4-9-2006. Attendance procedure is standard, meaning recommendation from the local council.

 

Please share this with any other leaders whom you think might be interested and benefit. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

 

Best wishes,

 

Neil Lupton
