Unit Safety Course
Group 7 Headquarters, Los Alamitos JFTB
Time: 1000 - 1600 Cost: $ 25.00 Form 17/31 required: Yes Contact: Maj Alex Kay

This course is being conducted as per policy order # 4 (this can be found at http://cawg.cap.gov/html/Pubs/orders.htm ) which requires that all unit Safety Officers will attend the one day Safety Officer Course. The course is required by CAWG because it gives Squadron Safety Officers a detailed review of the regulations related to Safety as well as a practical every-day approach to managing a Safety Program and the related paperwork and reports.
Even if the course was not required, you would find it very useful.

This course does not replace the need for Safety Officers to take AFIADL 02170 that needs to be completed 90 days after appointment.

Please send your check made payable to CAWG Civil Air Patrol and your form 17 to the Project Officer by 1 May 2008 (this will be a hard cut off date so that we may print the required number of books).

The Project Officer is:

Alex Kay, Maj., CAP
CAWG/SE
130 N. Hamilton Drive, # 9
Beverly Hills, CA 90211-2230
