Boy Scout Advancement
Boy Scout Advancement Boy Scouting provides a series of surmountable obstacles and steps in overcoming them through the advancement method. The Boy Scout plans his advancement and progresses at his own pace as he meets each challenge. The Boy Scout is rewarded for each achievement, which helps him gain self-confidence. The steps in the advancement system help a Boy Scout grow in self-reliance and in the ability to help others. Advancement Home Page

Boy Scout Awards Reference material about some of the awards and recognitions available to Boy Scouts.
The National Outdoor Achievement Award The National Outdoor Achievement Award recognizes Boy Scouts/Varsity Scouts that excel in outdoor participation. The award consists of five areas of emphasis (camping, aquatics, hiking, riding and adventure) with rigorous requirements to earn each segment. For Scouts looking for an extra challenge, consider the National Medal for Outdoor Achievement. This challenging award requires earning at least three of the National Outdoor Achievement segments, planning and leading a trek, earning Wilderness First Aid and becoming a Leave No Trace Trainer as well as several other requirements.
Conservation Good Turn The Conservation Good Turn Award is an opportunity for Cub Scout packs, Boy Scout troops, Varsity Scout teams, and Venturing crews to join with conservation or environmental organizations (federal, state, local, or private) to carry out a conservation Good Turn in their home communities.
Keep America Beautiful Inc. Hometown U.S.A. Award The Hometown U.S.A. Award is a joint program between Keep America Beautiful Inc. (KAB) and the Boy Scouts of America. It is designed to give recognition to the outstanding efforts of Scouts in their communities in regard to citizenship and environmental improvement.
International Recognitions Insignia and awards are available to show your involvement in the world Scouting movement.
Outdoor Ethics and Action Award
STEM/Nova Awards Completion of any Nova award earns a Boy Scout the right to wear the respective Nova award patch. Completion of each additional STEM Nova award is recognized by a pi () pin placed on the patch. Each award builds on the STEM-related topic, involves hands-on activities, and often includes a field trip.
Emergency Preparedness Award "Emergency preparedness" means being ready for all kinds of emergencies. It means you're ready and able to help in times of trouble to save lives and property and to help a community—or even a nation—get back to normal after a disaster happens. To encourage Scouts of all ages to be prepared for emergencies, the BSA has approved an Emergency Preparedness Award program for members of all ages.
Religious Emblems To encourage members to grow stronger in their faith, many religious groups have programs for young people to earn a religious emblem. The Boy Scouts of America approves of these programs and allows the religious emblems to be worn on the official uniform.
William T. Hornaday Awards The goal of this awards program is to encourage and recognize outstanding efforts in natural resource conservation and environmental protection.
World Conservation Award Scouts are eligible to receive the World Conservation Award after completing the requirements for the following merit badges: Environmental Science, Citizenship in the World, and either Soil and Water Conservation or Fish and Wildlife Management.
