Western Region NLS / NLATS

The National Leadership Seminar (NLS) is a weekend training program focusing on leadership development. Run by the Region Chief and his Advisers, it provides an in-depth look at leadership skills and techniques. An NLS discusses how these skills can be applied in your role in the OA and in other aspects of your life. The NLS program is offered several times a year at various locations in each region. Scheduled dates are given on the National OA Program Calendar, and are published in the Order of the Arrow's National Bulletin. More detailed information is available from your lodge leaders, the Section Chief or Adviser, or the Region Chief or Region Chair. Each region runs their own NLS program, so detailed information on upcoming NLS sessions is usually available on the appropriate region web site. If you are interested in attending an NLS, please contact your Lodge Chief or Adviser for registration information. Read on>>

The National Lodge Adviser Training Seminar (NLATS) is a weekend conference focusing on the skills and attributes of effective lodge advisers. It is intended primarily to enhance an adviser's knowledge of and connectivity with the OA's strategic plan, program and resources, while emphasizing personal skills that are essential to the development of effective youth leadership and ultimately the OA's service to the council. The NLATS session is a brand new training program. The course is designed for one-time participation. Each Region offers at least one NLATS each year. There is also a session offered at the Philmont training center each summer. Read on>>
