TRAINING
All members undergoing an SLSQ award, induction or water based/beach training must be signing on via LIMSOC or Surfcom. The information that is required to sign on training is: Location, Type of Training, Number of Trainees and Trainers and Estimated Completion Time.

If you are unable to sign on through Limsoc please call SurfCom and they can sign you on and allocate a call sign. This ensures SurfCom is aware of when and where the specified training is occurring and allows us to look out for member welfare and availability in the event of emergency tasking.
