The USPS has added an exciting element to the types of educational classes our squadron can offer--the USPS Seminars. These seminars are available both to our membership as well as to the public. At this time there are 15 separate seminars, each running about 2 hours long, in addition to a mini-course. Each topic can be completed in a single session. SEO Charlie Tarbert and Seminar Chair Dennis Figley, along with other members of the educational team, have been busily working on ways to develop these seminars to best fit our membership as well an additional tool for public boating education. We will soon have the capability to offer more learning opportunities on a variety of boating-related subjects and in a convenient learning format to provide even more approaches to promote safe boating through education.
