National Youth Leadership Training (formerly known as “Polaris” and “Sogus”), is scouting's training program for troop youth leaders aged 13 through 17. NYLT is an exciting action-filled six-day course which greatly expands the concepts introduced to most scouts at their unit level “Troop Leader Training” courses (such as what a leader must BE, KNOW, and DO. NYLT training is in an outdoor setting. Leadership concepts taught and experienced are directly applicable in immediate camp activities and in the provisional patrol setting itself. Later these leadership skills will be used at the home troop and in all other situations in life demanding leadership of self and others.
