About Wood Badge
Are You Ready to Take Your Scouting Journey to the Next Level?
Since its introduction in 1919, Wood Badge has been an essential component in the success of the Scouts. Volunteers who complete Wood Badge training receive a certificate, neckerchief, a leather slide, and two small wooden beads on a leather thong.
Great leaders don't just build great programs — they build great leaders. Wood Badge is your opportunity to step outside your comfort zone, challenge yourself, and discover new ways to make a lasting difference in the lives of the youth and volunteers you serve.
Join fellow Scouters for an unforgettable experience filled with teamwork, hands-on learning, new friendships, and personal growth. You'll gain practical leadership skills, fresh perspectives, and tools you can take home and put to work immediately in your unit, district, and council.
Whether you're a seasoned volunteer or looking to grow into your next leadership role, Wood Badge will challenge you to think differently, lead confidently, and inspire others to reach their full potential.
Train Them. Trust Them. Let Them Lead.
Your Scouting journey has already made a difference. Imagine what you can do next!
