by a youth member called an advancement program manager, who is
assisted by an adult on the team committee.

Scout in a troop or as a Varsity Scout in a team may continue
working toward the Eagle Scout rank as a Venturer until his 18th
birthday. There is no alternate Venturing advancement route to
qualify for the Eagle Scout rank. The Venturing
Bronze,
Gold,

certain requirements.
