""Again, I do not want to rush it as I want it to be for the benefit of the scouts, not me.""

 

If you learn and become a better leader for it, then the scouts benefit because of it.

 

The program has pretty much all levels of scouting and there is something that can be learned and garnered on all levels, whether your a den leader, District leader, Professional whatever. The concepts translate across the board.

Having just completed the first weekend, I'm going to agree with this. I think that former boy scouts and current/former direct contact boy scout leaders may have it a little easier because there is less of a learning curve in regards to the way the course is presented in a scouting-oriented manner, but I wouldn't consider it a barrier to entry at all.
