AUXOP COURSES
AUXOP COURSES
These specialty courses are designed for those interested in furthering their knowledge in the different aspects of surface operations and patrols. The courses specifically relate to how these subjects are used in surface operations. These courses also count toward achieving the AUXOP rating.
Both our flotilla and Division 15 will be conducting the training, everyone is invited to attend. The courses vary in length and may take anywhere from a single day to requiring a member to return for a number of sessions.

AUXFS
This specialty program is scheduled by ADSO-HR/AUXFS multiple times during the year. It requires the TCT course and the Hepatitis A shots (series of 2 shots taken 6 months apart.) The Vaccination is available from any USCG Health Services facility. Additionally, there is a "Sanitation" class taken every other year via the web. The 4 hour TCT is repeated every two years.
