NEW for 2025
In response to feedback from Wood Badge courses across the United States, Scouting America has released a pre-course orientation module to prepare participants to get the most from their Wood Badge experience.
The Orientation is available online through your my.scouting account.
Participants are required to complete the orientation prior to arriving for course. In compliance with Scouting America national standards, those who are unable to complete the orientation prior to the start of course will not be allowed to stay for the balance of the course. Lincoln Heritage Council refund policies will apply.
Estimated completion time: 30 minutes
