UNITED STATES COAST GUARD TRAINING CENTER PETALUMA

Overview

Training Center (TRACEN) Petaluma is located in the scenic farmland and rolling hills of Northern California.

It was originally established in 1942 as an Army Communications Station, where secret codes were deciphered during World War II. In July 1971, the Coast Guard took ownership of the property and established its premier West Coast Training Center.

Situated on 830 acres, the TRACEN is a small community with 240 buildings, a fully staffed clinic, a Chapel, a small police force, a fire department, a busy town center, and over 250K square feet of training facilities.

Residents and staff share a commitment to the training mission, professional development, fiscal stewardship, and creating an environmentally friendly place to live and work.

The TRACEN’s accomplishments in the field of instructional and Human Performance Improvement have been recognized by the International Society for Performance Improvement with 20 Awards of Excellence;

10 of them awarded in 2010. The American Society for Training and Development also recognized the center’s training achievements by conferring one Excellence in Practice Award and two Excellence in Practice citations.

TRACEN’s “Petaluma Green” initiative has been extremely successful and recognized with the 2010 CG Environmental Sustainability Award (Large Unit) and two well deserved individual awards.

TRACEN staff and students are committed to being part of the local community and volunteer over 10,000 hours annually to many worthwhile organizations and causes that benefit the disadvantaged.

Home to “A” and “C” Schools producing confident and competent graduates in the following schools:

Electronics Technician (ET): ETs install, maintain, repair and manage sophisticated electronic equipment, including command and control systems, shipboard weapons, guidance and fire‐control systems, communications receivers and transmitters, encryption equipment, radar, tactical and complex electronic gear.

Food Service Specialist (FS): FSs function in every aspect of food preparation, administration, procurement, storage, and distribution, to include funding, requisitioning, purchasing, receiving, accounting, and storing subsistence supplies. FSs cook, bake, serve, and oversee food service contracts

Health Services Technician (HS): HSs provide routine and emergency healthcare services in large Coast Guard clinics or small sick bays, ashore or on cutters. Services include direct medical care for personnel, assisting medical and dental officers, performing tests, x‐rays, and clinical lab tests; prescribing medications;

administering immunizations, and performing minor surgical procedures.

Information Systems Technician (IT): ITs are responsible for establishing and maintaining Coast Guard systems that collect, store, process and forward all voice, data, and video information. This includes both telephony and local area networks. At sea, ITs support tactical command, control, communications, and computer systems.

Operations Specialist (OS): OSs perform a central role in the execution of nearly all Coast Guard operations.

They are tactical command and control experts who serve as the “eyes, ears, and voice” of the service. OSs operate state‐of‐the‐art communications systems, tactical tracking and identification systems, shipboard navigation systems and advanced operational planning applications.

Storekeeper (SK): SKs procure, store, preserve, package, and issue spare parts, provisions, technical items, and all necessary supplies. They keep inventories, prepare requisitions, and check incoming supplies. SKs handle all logistical functions and are experts in the CG accounting system. They keep all missions of the service in operation.

Yeoman (YN): YNs are key problem‐solvers, counselors, and sources of information on military personnel matters ranging from entitlements, retirement options, veterans’ benefits, transportation, and career moves.

They are indispensable behind‐the‐scenes personnel who make organizations run efficiently.

Instructional Systems School (ISS): The Coast Guard’s Train‐the‐Trainer staff provides support for trainers throughout the Coast Guard and assists each prospective instructor in transitioning from the educational environment they experienced in high school and/or college to the performance based training environment of the CG. The goal is to “perform” rather than “inform”.

COAST GUARD TRAINING CENTER PETALUMA IS A GREAT PLACE TO LEARN, WORK, AND LIVE!

MISSION: Forging Today’s Force to Execute Tomorrow’s Mission

VISION: Optimized Workforce Performance and Unit Readiness

SUBORDINATE UNITS:

National Motor Lifeboat School (NMLBS), Ilwaco, WA Training Team East (TRATEAM East), Portsmouth, VA

BUSINESS LINES:

TRAINING: Our goal is to provide better, faster, economical training that provides students with skills and knowledge to perform effectively in the field. To achieve this goal we employ resident, nonresident, and exportable training delivery methods to deliver skills and knowledge to students.

Resident - TRACEN trains entry level skills for students (over 1,600 annually) in Class “A” Schools for seven of the Coast Guard’s enlisted ratings. We also train advanced skills to students (over 6,000 annually) in over 80 Class “C” School courses for most Coast Guard operational programs.

• We conduct operations training for Search and Rescue, Aids to Navigation, Operational Intelligence and Command Centers. We provide oversight for activities at TRATEAM East in Portsmouth, VA where both resident and exportable training programs are offered.

• We conduct boat forces and cutter operations training for boatswain’s mate, coxswain and crewman skills and also provide oversight for activities at the National Motor Lifeboat School in Ilwaco, WA where both resident training and assessment / standardization services are offered.

• We conduct engineering and weapons training for machinery technician, damage controlman, tactical weapons electronics technician, electrician’s mate, gunner’s mate, configuration management, and supply and maintenance.

• We conduct training in prevention and response operations for marine science technicians, marine inspection and investigation, pollution response, waterfront facility inspections, contingency preparedness, and crisis management.

• TRATEAM East provides pre-deployment training for CG members deploying to Patrol Forces Southwest Asia (PATFORSWA) in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and to other CG units deploying out of hemisphere.

Nonresident - TRACEN produces 28 correspondence courses and service-wide examinations for at least 7,500 CG members annually. TRACEN develops and maintains 20 nonresident rate advancement and three specialized distance learning courses, two of which are presented as e-learning. These courses provide self directed study to approximately 7,200 Coast Guard active duty and reserve personnel each year. To test retention of knowledge presented in these courses, TRACEN produces 75 end-of-course tests. Furthermore, TRACEN produces 188 service-wide examinations to support three test cycles each year.

Exportable - TRACEN instructors provide exportable training to CG units in other parts of the country supporting programs such as Aids to Navigation, Operational Intelligence, Search & Rescue and Marine Safety training 1,137 students in FY09. TRATEAM East, a subordinate unit, provides a variety of exportable training including:

• 5-day Maritime Law Enforcement refresher training to all Stations and Cutters in Districts 1, 5, 7, and 8.

• 5-day Special Emergency Operations & Procedures (SEOP) training focuses on navigation, seamanship, firefighting, and damage control. 3-person teams deploy on 100 trips annually to all cutters 225 ft and below in Districts 1, 5, 7, and 8.

ASSESSMENT & STANDARDIZATION: Our goal is to improve field unit readiness through assessment. Teams travel throughout the country to ensure compliance with COMDT standards in two distinct areas:

Boat Forces STANTEAM - visit Coast Guard Stations once every two years to inspect the condition of the CG’s entire inventory of small boats including 47-foot Motor Lifeboats (MLB), 41-foot utility boats (UTB), 25-foot Response Boats

– Small (RBS), 26-foot trailerable AtoN boats (TANB), 49-foot Buoy Utility Stern Loading boats (BUSL) and over the horizon cutter boats (CB-OTH). The program exists to ensure compliance with standards, enhance crew safety, and ensure operational proficiency and knowledge of boat crews fleet-wide.

Command Center STANTEAM – conduct assessments to promote standardization at 48 Coast Guard command centers by evaluating and reporting on service-wide command center effectiveness. The team also provides feedback to operational commanders and individuals as a catalyst for performance improvement.

International students attend many of our class “A” and “C” school courses of instruction. Mobile Training Teams (MTT) deploy on over 100 missions annually to over 50 countries delivering traditional CG mission area training to a global audience consisting of a wide variety of maritime law enforcement and regulatory agencies. TRACEN hosts over a dozen foreign delegation visits each year by high ranking military officials from other countries seeking to explore USCG training opportunities.

Interagency - Other federal, state and local agency members attend resident courses of instruction. Several of these agencies also use TRACEN facilities such as the firing range and firefighting trainer.

Local - TRACEN staff and student volunteer efforts help to strengthen ties and serve the local community that we live

in. Volunteers give approximately 10,000 hours annually to a wide variety of activities such as: the Partnership in Education program; Police, Fire and Rescue Squads; Building Projects, Red Cross, Holiday Events and other Charities.

Overview:Situated along the Pasquotank River, The Aviation Technical Training Center (ATTC) in Elizabeth City is the United States Coast Guard's technical training provider for enlisted aviation forces.

Mission: The primary mission of ATTC is the safe and effective maintenance of the Coast Guard’s aviation fleet. The quality of our graduates directly impacts the performance of our aviation resources today, tomorrow, and years into the future. This is a tremendous challenge to which we remain rigidly committed. To meet that challenge, we strive to ensure that each graduate meets the extensive requirements expected by the twenty-five U.S. Coast Guard aviation units across the country.

Training: Providing apprentice training for the AET, AST, AMT aviation ratings, and fifteen class C schools housed within ATTC, a dynamic range of training events takes place every day at the school. While one group of students are learning about the intricacies of modern airborne RADAR, another is in the river, testing their endurance on a two-mile training swim. In still another classroom, a group of experienced technicians have returned to ATTC to upgrade their maintenance skills on the latest engine technologies

Performance Systems Branch: Responsible for the development and maintenance of course curriculum for all enlisted aviation technical training, the Performance Systems Branch continuously works to improve over 25 courses of instruction ranging from initial A school training of aircraft maintenance personnel, to advanced C School training on the Coast Guard's most advanced aviation technology.
