Your best bet is to contact the BSA District you live/work in about becoming a counselor. I wondered the same thing a month or so back.

For those that are wondering what this District thing is, BSA's organization goes something like: National-->Council (large-ish area)-->District (smaller area within Council)-->Troop (individual unit). A LOT of stuff happens on the District level, including Eagle rank stuff and merit badge counseling.

Oh, and Blake: I've never, ever, heard of FIRST HQ being called "National". I'd consider it a safe bet to assume that Dag020 was referring to BSA's National office.
