NYLT is an intense, 5 day, outdoor leadership training experience for youth troop leaders. The course goal is prepare young men to become superior leaders in their troop, their district and other organizations they belong to now and in the future.

Participants learn to use current corporate leadership skills within the framework of the Scout Oath and Scout Law. BSA National carefully developed the NYLT curriculum with input from current corporate trainers, the United States Air Force Academy and others in the training community. When regional pilot courses of NYLT were completed, Wood Badge for the 21st Century (leadership training for adults), was aligned to the NYLT Course Syllabus. Graduates of this program become Senior Patrol Leaders in their troop as well as leaders in their Districts, Schools, Churches, and Communities. The course is led and taught by some of the best youth leaders in the Council; all of whom are graduates of the NYLT program and typically have staffed multiple courses. The adult advisors who assist the Youth Staff are Wood Badge-trained with extensive experience in training programs.
