GILWELL’S DIPLOMA COURSE
極偉訓練課程

極偉訓練制度的演變,由貝登堡爵士在1914年到1918年第一次世界大戰期間,於英國童軍總會通報(Headquarters Gazett)上,發表一系列的文章開始
1919年在貝登堡爵士的書名為『童軍團長手冊』(Aids to Scoutmastership) 裡,對於訓練的架構有以下的重點:
The scheme of training used at Gilwell evolved from a series of articles by B-P published in the Headquarters Gazette early in 1914-1918 war.
These were issued in book form in 1919 under the title Aids to Scoutmastership. The framework of training was set down by B-P in the following notes.

極偉皮領圈 THE GILWELL WOGGLE

在英國童軍總會檔案中心的「極偉皮領圈溯源檔案」裡,有完整的「極偉皮領圈歷史」資料。在1920年代的早期,一位英國極偉園營地的工作人員比爾‧夏克立(Bill Shankley)先生製作了第一個極偉皮領圈。他所製作的兩圈俗稱「土耳其人頭結」皮領圈,被採用作為正式的領圈。
1943年極偉園營主任約翰‧儲曼(John Thurman) 先生想要頒授信物,給完成服務員一系列訓練被稱為「基本訓練」的人,以及在邏輯上看起來結合木章的徽章制度。因此由1943年到1989年間,頒授極偉皮領圈給完成木章基本訓練的服務員,頒授極偉領巾和木章給完成木章訓練的服務員。 在今日,完成木章基本訓練的服務員依然可以購買極偉皮領圈,佩帶於自己的所屬童軍團領巾,或者是極偉領巾。

For full details about the history of the woggle see the Archives Information Sheet The origins of the woggle. The woggle was first created in the early 1920s by Bill Shankley, a member of the Gilwell staff. He produced a two-strand Turk's head slide which was adopted as the official woggle. In 1943, John Thurman, the Camp Chief, wanted some form of recognition of the completion of each stage of the Leader Training programme and it seemed logical to present some part of the Wood Badge insignia on the completion of what was then called Basic Training. So from 1943 until 1989 the Gilwell woggle was awarded on the completion of Basic Training and the Gilwell scarf and the Wood Badge beads on the completion of Advanced Training. The Gilwell woggle can still be bought by adults today for use with either the Group or the Gilwell scarf.
