Adult Uniform Left Side/Knot Insignia Training Award Knot emblems
Scouters' Training Award All of these awards are worn above the left pocket as shown below, with the exception of the Sea Badge. It is worn centered above the left pocket button on the left pocket flap of the field uniform, the kelly green Venturing uniform, or the Sea Scouting whites or blues. It may also be worn as a lapel pin on the traditional Scouting blue blazer. The Scouters' Training Award, Professional Circle (Training) Award, and the Scouters' Key Award are the only "knot emblems" which may have devices attached to the knot emblems signifying under which program(s) the Award was earned in. These same devices are attached to the medal for the Scouters' Training Award or Scouters' Key. More information on how these devices are worn are found on this page. The Professional Training Award is awarded with a certificate and knot emblem. There are no other formal recognitions for this award.
Each of these pages is set up with a full color scan or illustration of the award
-- the actual award, not just the knot emblem representing the award or recognition.
Description: Here you will find a description of what the award looks like and some background as to why the color(s) were chosen for the uniform knot emblem. Worn by: Here you will find information on who wears the knot emblem; for the most part, male and female volunteers and professionals who have met the requirements for the award and who were awarded the training recognition wears the uniform cloth emblem (the "square knot") on the field uniform. A note to Venturing/Sea Scouting leaders: some of the knot emblems shown here were available in background colors matching the color of the uniform shirt (kelly green for Venturing, white or dark blue for Sea Scouting). These variations on the khaki-tan knot emblems no longer exist from the BSA's Supply Division. They may be available from third-parties but be advised that unless approved by your Council's Scout Executive, the wearing of such third-party or unofficial insignia is in violation of BSA uniform and insignia policies even if it "matches the shirt color" or "looks good". (Hey! I'm just the messenger, okay?? *smiling*) Earned or Received: Earned (all of the training award recognitions are earned)
Here is where you will find the application or additional
information about the training recognition Also, the certificate which (should!) accompany the Award medal and/or uniform emblem(s) is shown. Background: Here you will find background and history of the award and variations of the Award and links to other information. As you see, each of the above training award recognitions now have their own page, for ease of printing and inserting into a binder or handout. The word "Training" is sometimes in parentheses ("training") because the BSA has been de-emphasizing these awards as purely training awards in favor of performance awards. Either term is correct, however, because all of these awards are catagorized as training awards and not as "service awards." Rarity of Award: Finally, here is where the collectors of such items will find information about the estimated number of knot emblems or how rare or not the knot emblem is. Settummanque!
