Each Scout can earn a series of ranks. The requirements for each rank are listed in the Boy Scout handbook and should be signed off by a leader in the unit as they are completed. In some cases, a requirement for more than the just the next rank can be completed. For each rank, the second to last requirement is a Scoutmaster conference, which is a discussion. The last requirement for each rank is a Board of Review. For all but the rank of Eagle Scout, the Board of Review is conducted by at least three members of the troop committee. For the rank of Eagle Scout, the Board of Review is conducted by leaders from the Council and from the troop committee.
