Merit Badge Counselor Requirements
Parents, if you're interested in becoming a Merit Badge
Counselor, this section is for you. Merit Badge Counselors are always welcome. You have an
opportunity to cultivate a Scout's interest in a new area. Choose a topic
of interest or your area of expertise. We welcome your participation in
helping our Scouts learn.
To be a merit badge counselor, you need to be at least 18 years
of age, of good character and will need to annually register with
the Boy Scouts of America, through Longs Peak Council by completing the
Adult Application. The council will then process the application, which includes
a screening.
Upon approval to serve as a volunteer, individuals are expected to
complete BSA
Youth Protection
training within 90 days of assuming a
leadership position. This training can be done through the BSA's
Online Learning Center. The Boy Scouts of America seeks to create
a safe environment for young people and adult leaders to enjoy
the program and related activities. BSA Youth Protection
training helps preserve that environment. This link will lead
you to the
Merit Badge Counselor Instructors Guide.
