WOOD BADGE
Purpose of Wood BadgeAs a result of attending Wood Badge,
participants will be able to:
View Scouting globally, as a family of interrelated, values-based programs that provide age-appropriate activities for youth.
Recognize the contemporary leadership concepts utilized in corporate America and leading government organizations that are relevant to our values-based movement.
Apply the skills they learn from their participation as a member of a successful working team.
Revitalize their commitment by sharing in an overall inspirational experience that helps provide Scouting with the leadership it needs to accomplish its mission on an ongoing basis.
Goals of Wood BadgeThe primary purpose of the Wood Badge experience is to strengthen
Scouting in our Units, Districts, and local Councils.
The Wood Badge Ticket represents the participant’s commitment to complete a set of personal goals relating to that individual’s Scouting position.
These goals will significantly strengthen the program in which the participant is involved.
In addition, the Ticket gives participants an opportunity to practice and demonstrate a working knowledge of the leadership skills presented during the course. Participants complete their Wood Badge Ticket no later than 18 months after the course.
History of Wood BadgeIn 1911, four years after Scouting began in Great Britain, Lord Baden Powell began training Scouters through a series of lectures. This led to the first Wood Badge training course for Scoutmasters, held eight years later at Gilwell Park near London.
In 1936, an experimental Wood Badge course was conducted in the United States at the Schiff Scout Reservation at Mendham, New Jersey.
Then, in 1948, the first American Wood Badge course was introduced in the United States as advanced training for trainers of Boy Scout leaders. Later, the program was extended to include Troop committee members, commissioners, and Explorer leaders.
Experiments began in the late 1960s with a leadership development Wood Badge course emphasizing 11 leadership skills or “competencies.” This program was launched in 1972 in support of a major revision of the Boy Scout phase of the program.
In 1978, an evaluation of the Boy Scout Leader Wood Badge course revealed a need for greater emphasis on the practical aspects of good Troop operation. The result was the development of a course that would provide a blend of Scoutcraft skills and practical Troop operation, mixed with a variety of leadership exercises.
In 2001, the new Wood Badge for the 21st Century was introduced. It was developed for all Scouters: Cub Scout leaders, Boy Scout, Varsity, Venturing, and Council and District leaders. The focus is on leadership skills, not outdoor skills. The first part of the new Wood Badge course reflects unit meetings, while the second part of the course uses a Troop camping activity as its delivery model.
Wood Badge courses are administered nationally by the Boy Scout Division. M
