  • The requirements may be approved/signed by adult leaders (Assistant Scoutmasters (ASMs) and Patrol coaches) and by youth leaders who are least the rank of Star.
  • When the scout believes he has completed all requirements and is ready to advance, he obtains an advancement form from the Troop Advancement Chairman.  The Advancement Chairman will verify all requirements such as attendance at outings and service hours are met.  This form will be used to record the Scoutmaster Conference and Board of Review comments.
  • Scoutmaster Conferences are conducted by the ASMs within the program which the youth is a participant.
  • The Board of Review (BoR) will be conducted by registered adults as soon as possible after the scoutmaster conference.  In accordance with the Guide to Advancement, this is to review that all requirements are met, not to retest or review the Scouts expertise of the skills learned.
