AUX-05A Course Syllabus

The Auxiliary Mid-Level Officer Course (AUX-05A) will challenge Auxiliary leaders to develop their leadership skills through interactive learning modules that challenge the leader to think beyond mere management and to look into the theories and practices of excellent leadership.

This insight to the theories of leadership will assist the Division Commander and Vice Commander on ways to improve leadership by example, inspiring shared vision, challenging the processes, enabling others to act and encouraging the heart while getting to know more and more about the way you perceive yourself and those around you.This will lead the student to a better understanding of the higher-level leadership abilities and skills needed to assist flotillas and their members to be effective Auxiliarists and work effectively as teams on the missions of the Coast Guard and Auxiliary.

This is the preparatory course for Division Commanders to advance to the role of District Captain.
