Member Training
New Item: 1/12 
Access to the online courses that are part of mandatory training is now available. Each member will need to use a personal Email account that matches to what they have listed in AUXDATA. Spouses MAY NOT use a shared email so each must have their own email account. You will need to set up an account on the LMS which will use your email address in AUXDATA as the user and it will send you an account verification message to your email address for validation. Once you have that all completed you can begin the online courses. Please note the AUXMAN provides guidance on the course work required and the time lines. New members have tighter time lines. Most courses take about hour to complete.
