About us

The NYLT Leadership Symposium & Course Director’s Conference is a weekend program for youth and adult staff of National Youth Leadership Training (NYLT) courses. The conference is designed for Course Directors/Scoutmasters, Course Advisers, Staff Advisers, Senior Patrol Leaders, ASPL’s, and other youth staff who lead (or will lead) their council’s NYLT course. In short, everything you could want to know about starting or improving your Council NYLT program will be here.

NYLT Leadership Symposium

For more than fifteen years, we’ve had many names: Northeast Region NYLT Course Director’s Conference, Northeast NYLT Course Director’s Conference and Alpine Conference. Through the year’s this conference has grown and developed thanks to feedback from attendees and we continue to grow the type of content we present and deliver.  The NYLT Leadership Symposium is a place of shared learning about all things NYLT.  You’ll be able to share how your course operates and help elevate other NYLT courses with your ideas.

Course Director’s Conference

For councils that are going to hold their first NYLT course or for someone who is new to the Course Director role or for someone new to the NYLT program, we offer the official NYLT Course Director’s Conference which walks through the syllabus and offers in depth suggestions to make your NYLT course successful. We’ll also have several sessions and panels to address specific issues you or your council may have.

Classes & Workshops

There will be mutliple classes and workshops that will be available.  The NYLT Leadership Symposium & Course Director’s Conference is built for collaboration between youth and adults in attendance. It takes many youth and adults in every council to build a sustaining youth-led NYLT culture. Bring your youth and adult leaders to maximize the benefits to your council NYLT program!
