"Generally speaking, training describes the basic workings of the Scouting Program. This orientation is to help eliminate the doubts that new volunteer leaders have about their responsibilities. You will find an online training center, helpful training resources, information for youth leaders and the continuum of training for adult leaders in Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity, and Venturing. Trained leaders provide a quality Scouting program which helps keep youth interested and engaged in all that Scouting has to offer. Surveys have shown that units with 100% trained leadership are more likely to have quality programs and retain youth in their units."

The Denver Area Council provides several training opportunities to adult volunteer leaders. Generally, courses are short (one day or less), and the pack will reimburse leaders for course costs. Training sessions given by the Timberline District tend to be located closer to the Stony Creek area, but leaders are free to attend sessions in other districts. Please visit the following websites for detailed information on required trainings, training dates, course descriptions, and online course registration:
