[Bobwhite Blather] The "what" comes immediately. The "why" takes longer.

[Bobwhite Blather Scouting Blog]

There's a new item at Bobwhite Blather: 'The "what" comes immediately. The "why"
takes longer.'

If there's one thing that Scouting does thoroughly for its adult volunteers
(besides handbooks and publications, that is), it's training.

There are all manner of courses for training every volunteer position, from den
leader to council chairman. Basic training courses are offered online and in
person for unit positions - a first exposure to adult leadership at the pack and
troop level. In-depth seminars and specialty classes at events like Pow-Wow and
University of Scouting expand on that knowledge. High-level courses such as Wood
Badge and Advanced Backcountry Leadership Experience put Scouters through the
wringer. For the serious volunteer, there are week-long courses at Philmont that
offer something for everyone.

Yes, the BSA is big on training - make no mistake about it.
