Purpose
The National Sea Scouting Committee has a new petty officer (youth)
leadership training course and award called Sea Scout Advanced
Leadership Training (SEAL). This is a one week, hard core
leadership course that is conducted at sea. If you successfully complete
the course you will be awarded the SEAL Training Award, which is
a silver pin with twin dolphins, to be worn on your uniform.
This course is a leadership course, not a seamanship course.
The course covers such topics as preparing, goal setting, organizing,
supervising, commanding, communicating, training, motivating, and other
topics that will help you in functioning as a leader in your Ship and in
life.
To attend a SEAL class you must be a registered Sea Scout. You
must have earned the Seaman Ordinary rank prior to attending SEAL
training, and you much study and have a thorough, working knowledge of
Chapter four of the Sea Scout Manual.
