What/When: 6 day course, late December/Early January Intended Audience: Age 18-26, selections made by each NSO, 2 participants per NSO
When did it begin and why? In 2013 in Houston - Texas delivered the first Interamerican Leadership Training with 68 participants from every National Scouting Organization (NSO) in the Interamerican Region. ILT is intended to help build capacity in the region by training emerging leaders in leadership skills that would enable them to become more effective leaders within their NSO

Stats • 343 participants since 2013 • 18 NSO have developed their Leadership course • 11 NSO have executed up to two leadership courses • 4 NSO have executed more than two leadership courses • Other Regions around WOSM have sent participants to ILT who have returned to their NSOs and initiated their own leadership training courses
