Welcome
There are a number of ways Auxiliarists can contribute to the missions of the
Auxiliary in the Marine Safety area. Some of the missions which involve direct
involvement with the Coast Guard, but there are plenty of ways you can support
our missions from anywhere in the district.
|
|
Like any Auxiliary program, your first inquiry should be through the chain
of leadership and management. Your FSO-MS should be conversant with the marine
safety opportunities available in your area, and your FSO-MT should be able to
identify training opportunities in the area. If you or your
flotilla officers need additional assistance, contact your
SO-MS.

RESOURCES
USCG Five Star Safety Program:
 The
Trident
program is a good model for the development of your skills and experience
in Marine Safety. We strongly recommend you pursue your Trident qualification.
But remember that the Trident program is only a guide; that your progress in
marine safety will depend on your commitment and dedication to the program.
Moreover, we do not want people to pursue Marine Safety qualifications unless
they intend to remain active in the field, both in support of the Coast Guard
and in training other Auxiliarists.
There are several prerequisites in the Trident program: Introduction to Marine
Safety and Environmental Protection, Initial Indoctrination to Marine Safety,
Incident Command System, and Good Mate. Completion of these courses will provide
you with an excellent foundation in the marine safety area.
There are currently 16 personal qualifications specifically available for Auxiliarists
which will qualify you for the Trident device, along with a number of related
qualifications throughout the marine safety mission area. Additionally, there
are a number of qualifications used by the active duty which are also available
to Auxiliarists. An overview of the principal areas of activity in our district,
along with the Assistant District Staff Officer assigned to assist in advising
and training in the area follows:
AUX-MEES Marine Environmental Education Specialist
AUX-ACP Assistant Contingency Preparedness Specialist
AUX-EK

People often ask how they can become involved in marine safety programs when
they live a distance from Alameda. For those Auxiliarists, it is possible to
pursue the following qualifications, which will be easily adaptable to any geographical
area, and will also provide a solid foundation in the missions any Auxiliarist
interested in marine safety should be familiar with:
