The Woodbadge Assessment follows the Unit Leader Training Scheme. This Woodbadge Assessment consists of 3 stages.

STAGE 1

During the process of this stage, leaders are given a period of time (minimum period of 6 months) to practice the skills and knowledge learnt in their respective units. A compiled report of 6 activities is to be submitted to the Singapore Training Team for assessment. This process aims to allow leaders to reflect upon the training received and the transfer of training at units and is developmental in nature.

STAGE 2

At this stage, an assessor will be assigned by the National Training Commissioner to visit the school and observe the scout unit in action. The purpose of this visit is developmental in nature. The assessor will provide additional guidance and information to leaders should the need arises.

STAGE 3

At this stage, leaders will undergo an interview session with the National Training Commissioner. This session aims at reflecting on the learning experiences that leaders have acquired. Upon successful completion of this stage, leaders will be awarded a "Woodbadge" (2 pieces of wood beads tied to a leather thong and is worn around the neck) - a symbolic representation for the completion of training, and the leaders will be deemed to be a qualified adult leader to run scout units in Singapore.
