The New Member Course is now available online through Auxiliary eLearning, the Coast Guard Auxiliary online learning system. Prospective members can review the contents of the course and take the final exam online. A printout of the notification that they passed with 80 percent or better will suffice in lieu of the hard copy answer sheet currently required with the new member application. To access the course, go to: http://64.207.134.26/usr/moodle2/login or the T Department eLearn page. To login, use the prospective member's last name as the username, and 12345 as the password.
