WHAT IS National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT)?
The National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) is the council-level youth leadership course provided by BSA. In order to reach the widest possible youth audience with our BSA training, NYLT is open to Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, Venturing members and Sea Scouts. This is in line with the Mission and Vision of the BSA as well as the Strategic Plan of BSA. In NCAC, the course has adopted a Baden-Powell nickname, “Impeesa” (the wolf that never sleeps), to further identify our program.
The objective of our NYLT program is to equip our young people with leadership skills to help them succeed in their Scout unit and in LIFE. Impeesa brings together Scouts from all over the Council to learn and practice the leadership techniques in a risk-free, Scout-friendly environment. The Scouts learn and practice leadership skills and styles together.
NYLT is an experience designed to train the participant in team building and leadership skills, taught in an outdoor setting. The course is led by a staff of Scouts from the Council. These peer level instructors have completed the Impeesa course and an intense staff development process.
The course is presented around actual Scout events and activities. Scouts will get to SEE the Scouting program modeled and the Scouting ideals come to life as they learn and practice their leadership skills.
Impeesa is not another summer camp; it is an intense and challenging leadership experience. There is no merit badge training offered. Every game, activity, ceremony, and even each meal is designed to be part of a total training experience. Participants are treated with the respect they are due as future leaders in their units. They are expected to put forth the time and energy needed to learn and practice the leadership skills.
