The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps is launching a new Parent Portal, just in time for Summer! The first phase of the portal will allow parents to request summer training opportunities for their child or children enrolled in the Sea Cadet Corps.
We are looking forward to a robust summer training season. To make the sign-up process as easy as possible for adult volunteers and parents, we will offer training this month on how to use the Parent Portal (see dates below). This online tool allows parents to request a training for their child or children and gives Commanding Officers and Commanding Officers of Training Contingents the ability to review and approve or decline the request online. We are thrilled about this -- we hope you will be too! Here is the timing of the roll-out. Here are some key dates to remember:
