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 an evolving training program. The course is designed for one-time participation. Each Region offers at least one NLATS each year.

The 2012 NLATS training schedule is as follows:

How to Register:

If you are interested in attending an NLATS, please use the registration link above to submit your NLATS registration form online.

Please note the registration deadlines for each NLATS, as noted above.

As space is limited, registration forms may be submitted to hold participant slots, with payment to follow, provided that the payment reaches the Region Office by the deadline date.  Please understand that, by submitting a registration form, you have reserved a participant slot in a seminar where slots are limited.  As such, you will be expected to pay the fee for each slot reserved.  If payment for the reservation is not received by the deadline, your lodge/council will be billed for the amount, whether or not the participant chooses to attend.
