The Unit Award Certificate is presented to a unit on the Council level that completes a significant conservation project. For adults, it signifies a minimum of three years of significant contributions to conservation and ecology either on a District or Council level.

Baden Powell, Wood Badge's primary purpose is to strengthen Scouting in our units, districts, and local council.

Many describe this course as their mountaintop experience in Scouting the most fun they ve ever had as an adult Scouter. Wood Badge is open to all registered adult Scouters who have completed the basic training requirements for their primary Scouting position. There is no minimum years of experience you must complete in order to attend Wood Badge.
