Offsite Training
Training opportunities for both adults and youth are available outside the Pacific Skyline Council. Leaders and youth might look for training outside the council if our training schedule doesn't fit yours or for courses and conferences that take your skills to the next level. From our surrounding councils to Scouting America's High Adventure Bases, exciting training experiences await.
Out of Council Training
Our neighboring councils also offer training throughout the year. If you complete any training in another council, please be sure to send a copy of your training completion card to our Council Registrar so that the training can be added to your record.
