Leadership Training and Succession Planning

Leadership Training

The Auxiliary has several leadership courses.  From time to time Flotilla Leadership Training is offered through District 9CR at one of the semi-annual training meetings (DTrain) or as an on line course.  This is "nuts and bolts" training - who gets what reports and when, what are the day to day duties of the Flotilla Commander, etc.

The Auxiliary also has leadership classes of a more theoretical nature in a continuum for each level of elected leadership.  These are offered as "C" Schools which will be listed on this national web page.These are usually 40 hour courses, often offered in two sections each over a long weekend.  

AUXLAMs - Auxiliary Leadership and Management is the entry level course for Flotilla leadership.  It is identical to the Active Duty LAMS (Leadership and Management Course), from time to time members may be able to take a LAMS course in lieu of AUXLAMS. This course covers to basics of being a first level manager and leader in the Auxiliary - how to deal with volunteers, which management styles work -- and when, personal growth, etc.

• D9CR will offer AUXLAMS Part B at the Spring 2020 DTrain
• D9CR will offer AUXLAMS Part A at the Fall 2020 DTrain 

 AMLOC - Auxiliary Mid-Level Officer's Course is for potential Division leaders (VCDR and DCDR) as well as District Staff Officers.  This course covers how to manage and lead through others. 

Senior Officers (District Captains and Commodores) have their own leadership training. 

If you are interested in any of these courses please talk to your Flotilla Commander or Member Training Officer.
