The Department of Training serves our members by designing, delivering, and maintaining courses in leadership, member training, value-added training, and AUXOP specialty courses.  The Department also provides the platform for distance learning by providing on-line courses and administering the National Testing Center which offers many on-line exams for qualification of required program competencies.

Training is a very crucial part of our member activities.  In fact, it is hard to think of any Auxiliary activity that does not have training available to define program mission requirements and assure a competent, superior performance in all we do.  We take this responsibility seriously and are always seeking to improve the training resources offered to our membership.

Please take a few minutes to access the web links available through this site.  These links, above and to the left are intended to entice, educate and encourage additional research.

 Team Coordination Training, TCT, is one of the steps to
 become crew/coxswain qualified with the Auxiliary.  If you
 wish to go out on the water in a crew capacity or your
 current TCT session is about to expire after 5 years please
 consider joining Mark Parmelee and Tom Kane for this
 spring session.

 Through discussion, case studies, videos, and examples;
 attendees will cover topics to reduce human errors leading
 to boating accidents.  All auxiliarists are invited to
 attend.  One does not need to have final status as an
 auxiliarist nor be involved in the crew program.  The
 boating lessons learned have applications for all.

 Please RSVP to Mark at potterview@gci.net.  Please note that to get credit for the training one must attend all three sessions offered.
