Scouts Can Earn College Credit For Attending National Leadership Course
This course educates Scouts, Venturers and Sea Scouts on how to be effective leaders; NYLT Leadership Academy teaches them how to be effective teachers.
For the first time, those who attend the academy not only will learn how to teach NYLT courses in their home councils, but they can also get college credit for it.
NYLT Leadership Academy has partnered with West Virginia University to offer the one-credit course entitled, “ORGL293A: Youth Leadership Experience.” The course, available to high school students, covers leadership techniques and practices. Most of the work in the course will be completed through the NYLT Leadership Academy program. There will be additional required reading and work before and after the course. The college credit can be transferred to any higher education institution across the country.
