What is Brownsea-NYLT?
Brownsea-NYLT is a week long outdoor experience for present and future youth troop leaders, designed to help a Scoutmaster in his responsibility to train his scouts in being better troop leaders and in maintaining a youth-run Scouting Program. It is based on the BSA National Youth Leadership Training Program. NYLT replaces the course curriculum previously known as Junior Leader Training (JLT). The Course focuses on teaching advanced leadership and planning skill in an intense, team-building atmosphere. Participants will be regularly challenged to accomplish time-sensitive tasks using the team-building and leadership skills taught in the Course. Participants will also have opportunities to improve their outdoor skills and apply them.
