THE CLEAR AND SIMPLE ANSWER IS THE WAY IT PUBLISHED IN THE ADVANCEMENT COMMITTEE HANDBOOK. WHEN A BOY SATISFIES THE REQUIREMENTS SET FORTH, THE MBC SIGNS THE CARD. THAT IS THE EFFECTIVE DATE THAT THE BOY EARNED THE BADGE. THERE IS NO RETESTING ALLOWED OR NEEDED. AS FAR AS WHO CAN BE A MBC, AGAIN THERE IS ENOUGH SCOUT LITERATURE OUT THERE. THE ADVANCEMENT COMMITTEE HANDBOOK WOULD BE A GREAT PLACE TO START!!! STOP CREATING PROBLEMS AND REINVENTING THINGS THAT ARE ALREADY IN PLACE. WE ARE NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD - THE PROGRAM AS DESIGNED WORKS!!
