Adult Volunteers–How to Become a Merit Badge Counselor

Thank you for considering becoming a Merit Badge Counselor! To become an MBC:
1) Complete a Scouting America Adult Application for position code number 42.

2) complete the Scouting America revised Background Check Authorization form.

2) complete the Scouting America Merit Badge Counselor Information Form.

3) complete the online Scouting America Youth Protection Training Course.

4) Turn in the Adult Application, the background check form, the MBC Information Form; and your Youth Protection Training Certificate at the Advancement/Registration Table at any Monday Night Troop Meeting. Alternatively, you are welcome to scan and e-mail your completed forms and YPT Certificate to our Membership/Forms Coordinator; or mail them to our Committee Chair.

Current Merit Badge Counselors interested in adding additional badges to their approved list need only complete the Merit Badge Counselor Information Form.
