USPS
University
includes new programs targeted to a range of boaters and types of boating. The
hallmark of this concept is the Seminar Series. These short seminars are
targeted to specific topics and needs with a two-hour format, and valuable
take-away guides. Each seminar provides credits toward the soon to be released
Boat Operator Certification program, and credit toward elective courses.
These seminars are
available now.
To inquire as to when and where the next session of a
particular seminar will be given, please drop an e-mail note to our
Squadron
Seminar Coordinator.
