Outdoor Leadership Skills (OLS)  OLS is a course that takes participants through all the steps that a scout would to achieve the rank of
First Class. It is a great course on camping basics and I found it an enjoyable weekend. It is considered part of the three basic training classes that one needs to become a trained ASM. (Note if
you wish to go to Philmont, you will need to complete ASM training). Register at council website.

Troop Leader Specific Training (TLST). TLST is a day long class that gets into specifics about duties and provides scads of resources. It does a good job to prepare you and I found it especially
helpful with respect to meeting other people who can support me when I need it.
Youth Protection Training - If you haven’t had this yet or it is time to update your training, the
Youth Protection online training course is up and active. WEB ADDRESS: http://www.gstcbsa.org/Training/YPT/index.htm Youth Protection must be taken by every adult
leader active with youth. We now have a resource that makes it easy to get every one certified every two years. Please take advantage of this resource.
