Rank advancement is achieved by following the following steps:<br />
1. <strong><strong>Scout</strong>s</strong> generally must pass requirements for rank advancement before adult<br />
<strong>Troop</strong> leaders or before <strong>Scout</strong> leaders (such as Senior Patrol Leader, Patrol<br />
Leader, or Instructor) designated by <strong>Troop</strong> adult leaders.<br />
2. The most appropriate place to record the accomplishment <strong>of</strong> requirements<br />
for the next rank is at the back <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Boy</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> Handbook. The <strong>Troop</strong><br />
adult leader or designated <strong>Scout</strong> leader must initial the requirement passed<br />
and record the date it was passed. Alternatively the leader may initial the<br />
requirement on the <strong>Scout</strong>’s Individual History Report.<br />
3. When the <strong>Scout</strong> has completed all except the last 2 requirements<br />
(<strong>Scout</strong>master Conference and Board <strong>of</strong> Review) for the next rank, he must<br />
contact the <strong>Scout</strong>master to schedule a <strong>Scout</strong>master Conference. If the<br />
<strong>Scout</strong>master is unavailable, the Assistant <strong>Scout</strong>master may conduct this<br />
conference. The <strong>Scout</strong> must bring his Individual History Report (computer<br />
printout from the Record Keeper), his <strong>Boy</strong> <strong>Scout</strong> Handbook, and his <strong>Troop</strong><br />
activity logbook to the conference as evidence that he has finished the<br />
requirements. The <strong>Scout</strong>master initials the Handbook showing that the<br />
<strong>Scout</strong> has completed his <strong>Scout</strong>master Conference. The <strong>Scout</strong>master then<br />
informs the <strong>Troop</strong> Board <strong>of</strong> Review Chairman that the <strong>Scout</strong> may come<br />
before the next Board <strong>of</strong> Review to stand for that rank.<br />
4. The <strong>Scout</strong> should bring his Individual History Report, Handbook, and<br />
<strong>Troop</strong> activity logbook to the Board <strong>of</strong> Review and appear in proper<br />
uniform.<br />
5. Each member <strong>of</strong> the Board <strong>of</strong> Review should have his own updated copy <strong>of</strong><br />
the <strong>Scout</strong>’s Individual History Report. If the <strong>Scout</strong> passes the Board <strong>of</strong><br />
Review, the Board <strong>of</strong> Review Chairman should initial that requirement in<br />
the Handbook and on his copy <strong>of</strong> the Individual History Report, and inform<br />
the <strong>Scout</strong>master that the <strong>Scout</strong> has completed the requirements for that rank<br />
at the Board <strong>of</strong> Review on that date.<br />
6. The <strong>Scout</strong>master transmits this information to the Record Keeper for<br />
recording in the database.<br />
7. The <strong>Scout</strong>master purchases the rank badge for presentation to the <strong>Scout</strong> at<br />
the next <strong>Troop</strong> Court <strong>of</strong> Honor.<br />
