It is official I have just recently completed my adult leader basic training. Basic training was super easy for me because I have basically lived and breathed scouting for the past 12 years. Basic leader training for the position of Assistant Scoutmaster includes the following three courses:
New Leader Essentials or This is Scout Training
Scoutmaster and Assistant Scoutmaster Leader Specific Training
Introduction to outdoor leadership skills
In next couple of posts I will talk about what each course is for those of you who are not familiar with the courses.
I believe that getting trained was a essential part of the adult scouter journey even though I have been in a leadership role in the Boy Scouts since I was 13 years old.
Yours in Scouting Service

Congratulations! I look forward to reading your perspective on the adult training and whether or not it's what you expected it to be.
