Eagle Training Information

Upcoming Eagle Trainings:

Our Council & District Training Committees regularly holds Eagle Training opportunities throughout the year. 

At each opportunity we offer:

Life to Eagle/ Eagle Coach (One training, two parts) 

  • Life to Eagle  – A training designed for Life scouts and their Parents to familiarize themselves with the process of getting to the Eagle Rank, and the steps involved.
  • Eagle Coach – Starts with the Life to Eagle section, then breaks off to go more in depth on supporting and guiding scouts on their journey to Eagle. 

Eagle Board of Review Training – Covers the specifics of the Eagle Board and how it works. This training is required for scouters interested in serving as a member of an Eagle Board. A breakout session is offered at the end for scouters interested in serving as an Eagle Board Chair. 

Classes are $5.00 each, and sometimes lunch can be added for an additional $12.

Workbook and Application Overview

Eagle Scout Service Project Workbook:

All Eagle Scout Service Project Workbooks must be completed by being TYPED OUT (except for approval signatures). Once it has been typed out and printed, the Scout will then obtain manual signatures from required positions within the Troop.

NOTE: The Guide to Advancement states that ONLY the most current version of the Eagle Workbook and the Eagle Rank Application can be accepted by the Council office. Additionally, Scouting America has been known to frequently update these documents, so please check to make sure you are using the most current version available.

Eagle Scout Rank Application:

The unit will now be responsible for generating and printing out the correct version of the Eagle Rank application for the Scout. Again, this must now be obtained by the Unit directly from the Scoutbook Internet Advancement system (typed out) as that system is linked directly to the local Council and should minimize any missing information. Remember to make sure leadership positions have been entered into the Scouts profile in Scoutbook. Once the application has been generated and printed by the unit, the Scout will then manually write in their references with contact info and then obtain manual signatures from required positions within the Troop. 

NOTE: If a Scout comes in with an outdated version or one not typed out or generated via the Scoutbook system, the paperwork will not be accepted; they will be required to complete the correct version in the correct format and then request an appointment to return on different day to turn in for approval.
