Scouting Leadership Conference

Scouting Leadership Conference 2025
Heidelberg, Germany

In November 2025 we are celebrating 75 years of Scouting in the Transatlantic Council-  and we are returning to the city where TAC was born! 

The 2025 Scouting Leadership Conference (SLC) will be held over the November 14-16  weekend in Heidelberg, Germany. The Scouting Leadership Conference (SLC) training event for adult and youth leaders offered by the Transatlantic Council is designed to supplement the educational experience of any Scout leader. 

SLC 2025 is open to all Scout Leaders, Youth Leaders, Chartered Organizations, and parents within the Transatlantic Council. The classes offered provide skills for first-time leaders to experienced leaders.

This year discussions will range from how to keep the fun in Scouting to all the “need to know” while Scouting in the overseas environment. Courses will be held on Saturday the 15th, with topics focusing on support of Cub Scouting, Scouts BSA, Venturing, and other Scouting programs. There are offerings for both adult leaders and youth leaders. Refer to the listing of class offerings and schedule on the registration page to see what is being offered. 

We look forward to seeing everyone at the Scouting Leadership Conference in November.  

After SLC classes are done, join us at the Council Recognition Dinner on Saturday evening. In addition to other awards, the highlight of the evening will be the presentation of the Silver Beaver Awards. This is the highest award that a local council can bestow for volunteer service within the council and to the Boy Scouts of America. Scout uniform or casual business dress is appropriate attire.

FAMILIES
While you are attending SLC, please consider bringing the rest of the family to explore the environs of the  area. Take time to enjoy and see the sights of what the area has to offer.
