Tip
2:
(Anything
underlined
is a
direct
link
to
the
site.
Just
double
click
on
it)
Just in case you are not aware of this web site, The Chief Director's Website, there's a lot of help on it, for instance E learning for Ribbons, On line exams, C Schools, ICS Training. Re: ribbons, when you get to this site, look to your left and click on Ribbon Checker and follow the prompts. The top ribbon is the most important one, and then left to right beginning with the next ribbon of importance which is closest to the heart, ribbons are placed in sequence no matter how many rows one might have.
The IDC Course (Instructor Development Course) is also available for your printing, as was mentioned during the D Training this month. Just look on your left and click on Training/Exams, then when that page comes into view, click on the page at the top under Training, Member Training, then on your left, click on Instructor. When that page comes up click and print Appendix A, then B, then C, then the Student Course Book. Ask for a mentor guide from your Flotilla to help you qualify for your open book exam with a 90% passing grade which will also earn you a ribbon.

Reporting your C-School Attendance
·
Normally,
the
lead
C-School
instructor
or a
designee
completes
the
form
which
reports
your
C-School
course
attendance.
From
time
to
time,
this
reporting
does
not
get
entered
into
AUXDATA
for
a
number
of
reasons.
If
this
is
the
case,
you
can
send
a
photocopy
of
your
course
completion
certificate
to
your
DIRAUX
for
entry
into
AUXDATA.
Members
need
to
apply
at
least
45
days
in
advance.
All
the
necessary
info
re
forms
is
listed
on

Suggestions

Training
regarding
Signaling
Mirrors
and
Knots
I
personally
believe
that
training
in
the
effective
use
of a
mirror
can
save
many
lives.
Old
CDs
given
to
boaters
are
a
great
approach
to
more
effective
relationships. Here
is a

that
is
by

one

Documentiation Revision List for Training Courses 17 AUG 2008
The National Training Department's Documentation Revision List has been changed to incorporate updates in the documentation to support the New Member Course material developed by the Personnel Department. Updates include the Reference Guide, Student Guide and exams. This list has been developed by the National Training Department to provide the current revision of training material required for program qualification and AUXOP courses. All items listed have been reviewed by responsible departments and confirmed as the latest revision. (Source: Ken Kendall, DC-Td)
