University of Scouting

Have you ever wanted to learn more about a specific Scouting topic or skill? Be prepared to take your Scouting program to the next level! Each year, the council conducts a supplemental adult training event called the University of Scouting (UoS). We are offering classes for adults for all levels of Scouting (Venturing Youth may attend the Venturing classes).

Each year, the council conducts a supplemental adult training event called the University of Scouting (UoS). The schedule for the day goes like this: registration and refreshments start at 7:30 AM, opening flag ceremony and welcome at 8:30am, and then a series of six 50 minute sessions on special interest topics which run all day.

We will also have a fantastic Midway (like a trade show for Scouters!), featuring Council groups from Training, BSA Camps, the Order of the Arrow, and many vendors who offer services and products that can add great value to your Scouting program on Saturday.

Coffee, snacks, and a patch are included with your registration. Lunch is available for an additional $15.

The openness of the instructors. I am new to scouting, and they were really great at answering questions and giving useful advice I could take back to my den that week.

I've attended three years in a row. It is always well organized, well-staffed, and I enjoy the instruction, and also spending time with other Scouters and hearing other ideas from other adult leaders who are engaged in the BSA program.

The informal nature of the classes and lunchtime provided opportunities to learn from the burning questions and discussions with the instructor and other attendees. Everyone was so nice and open in sharing their experiences and tips.
