Welcome to MeritBadgeCourses.com
We are providing scouts the opportunity to further their journey towards Eagle Scout by giving them easier access to Scouting BSA merit badges.
All Merit Badge Counselors are registered with the Boy Scouts of America.
Meritbadgecourses.com is working in cooperation with the Greater Tampa Bay Area Council;
however, it is not being run by the Council.
Any scout in any council can attend these merit badge courses online. We follow youth protection requirements and two-deep leadership.
Open This Weekend: Dog Care
WHAT People SAY
"Reptile & Amphibian merit badge course was very well run, engaging and fun. The counselor was excited and knowledgeable about the subject and made sure the scouts understood the material being covered. We will definitely do another merit badge here!"
