 Training Recognition
The leadership training recognition plan is intended to honor demonstrated performance and tenure of
trained leaders in all areas of the Scouting program directly involving units. Leaders interested in
collecting recognitions for the sake of the emblem only should be counseled as to the true intent of the
plan.
The Scouting leader who has shown interest and dedication by giving up personal time to attend a learning
event should be properly and publicly recognized. Whatever format the recognition takes, it should be
sincere and impressive, and the participants should be made to feel they have accomplished something
worthwhile. The training committee should encourage Scouters to qualify for the various awards, provide
opportunities for completing their requirements, and see proper records are kept. Recognition will
establish status for the training and the awards in the eyes of all youth, adult leaders, chartered
organizations, and the general public.
It is important to the recognition plan that all awards be presented in a dignified manner at an occasion
befitting the achievement. Immediate recognition of achievement could be given by presentation of the
award in the presence of the unit membership and representatives of the chartered organization.
Occasions for formal recognition should also include meetings with the chartered organization,
roundtables, and council and district meetings. Recipients of awards might be recognized at the annual
meeting of the district or council, and an announcement in the council newsletter and in other news media
is also recommended.
Keep in mind an important objective is to encourage other leaders to strive to be fully trained. Properly
handled, the awards presentation can serve to prompt others to seek training and recognition.
