What to Expect at NYLT

NYLT is an intensive six-day course.  Modern leadership theory is delivered in a team (the term team may be considered synonymous with patrol in a Troop model) setting with an emphasis on immediate application of learning in a fun environment.  The course is an exciting combination of classroom and fun outdoor activities providing a challenging and rewarding learning experience.  Participants cook meals and work in their teams throughout the course.  Teams are composed of diverse participants in order to promote individuals making new friends and learning about others.
