Florida Institute of Technology is a highly-rated university that specializes in engineering and aviation, located in Melbourne, Florida. Coastal breezes keep this area of Florida at a comfortable temperature during summer time. The food at Florida Tech is OUTSTANDING -- with all you care to eat of your choice of many different foods.
Looking to get off to a GREAT start this summer? This is the perfect POLA for you! This will be a traditional POLA with focus on leadership (squad leader, company commander, guidon), teamwork, and basic color guard skills. Count on plenty of encouragement, positive feedback, and individual instruction. You will go home feeling motivated and ready to take your unit to new heights.
Honor Cadet: SN Andrew Dailey, 2745 Seabee Battalion
Experience culinary arts! Cadets will receive Florida Food Handler's certification and get hands-on experience cooking. Because of the team-building nature of this training, an honor cadet was not awarded.
Looking to become a leader or improve your leadership skills in your Training Ship? This is the class for you! NLCC POLA will also be very helpful to cadets who will move up to the NSCC later in the summer. Prepare yourself to be company commander, color guard commander, and guidon. We'll also be sure to leave time for fun!
