The NESA Outstanding Eagle Scout Award (NOESA) is a distinguished service award of Scouting America. It is awarded to an Eagle Scout by the National Eagle Scout Association for distinguished service to their profession and community. The recipient must be recommended by their local council’s NESA committee, president, and Scout executive.

The Distinguished Eagle Scout Award (DESA) is a similar recognition, but requires a tenure of twenty-five years as an Eagle Scout. NOESA is not required for the DESA award, but DESA recipients may not subsequently receive the NOESA.
