Task
14. Teach a first aid skill using EDGE
Required Often forgotten
A plan developed with your counselor's guidance, discussed with them, and then actually taught. This one needs somebody to teach and is the most often left too late.
Notes and warnings
Warning. This is the requirement most often left until last and the one that most often stalls a nearly-finished badge. It needs a plan developed with guidance from your counselor, discussed with them, and then actually delivered using the EDGE method, which means finding people to teach and a time to teach them. Start arranging it at the beginning.
