Angling Educator is a four-hour training course for Registered Scouters and Registered Scouts age 15+ (First Class+). It is a national course and is taught by BSA (now Scouting America) Certified Angling Instructors. The purpose of the class is to prepare program leaders to teach Scouting America Fishing Basics to Scouts and Cubs. The Angling Educator training teaches both fishing skills and how to plan and run fishing events for their unit, district, or Council. Angling Educators learn age-based and skills-appropriate fishing tools and techniques for simple cane pole and spin cast fishing. The course highlights best practices in both the classroom and in the field.
