This year’s Kansas American Legion College will have a Hands-On Class dealing with mylegion.org as well as a more robust adjutant class being taught by experienced Post Adjutants. If you are a Post Commander or Post Adjutant, this is a prime opportunity to actually learn how to input data and make changes to the membership records of your Post. PLEASE ensure you bring your laptop or iPad to get the full effect of the training, if you don’t have either there will be computers you can use on site.
We will also be holding classes for Finance Officer, leadership, and resolution writing, will conduct a model meeting, and much more, see the schedule for a full list of classes offered. There will be a VA/KCVA panel that will give everyone the opportunity to ask questions. We’ve had a similar panel previously and everyone really enjoyed being able to ask pinpoint questions to a person that is the expert in the department they work in. The panel will have at least one representative from the Veterans Health Administration, the Veterans Benefit Administration, and the Kansas Commission on Veterans Affairs.
