Merit Badge Counselor Training


Recommended Posts

Can anyone point me to an official source on what it takes, aside from YPT, to have a merit badge counselor "trained to position"? We have several hundred in our district that are showing up as "untrained" because they are lacking "D76 Merit Badge Counselor Orientation". It was my understanding that this course, while valuable, was not required to be considered "trained". I've been trying to find some official word on this but haven't hit on anything yet.

 

Thanks!

We usually do some kind of merit badge orientation at our roundtable and they usually put it down as being D76 when they submit the list of attendees to council.
