In an eventful weekend hosted at American Legion Post 149, a group of graduates from the California American Legion College 2-2023 were honored. These Veterans dedicated their time to deepen their understanding of The American Legion’s mission and improve their leadership skills.

California American Legion College 2-2023 was hosted at Post 149 in Escondido from October 20 to 22. We congratulate the graduates who devoted 2.5 days to learning and collaborating on strategies to become more effective Legionnaires, both in their communities and for the larger mission of The American Legion.

The California American Legion College is run by a highly capable and motivated staff from all across the state. The college is tailored for Legionnaires who aspire to lead American Legion Posts within their communities. The curriculum offers insights into management techniques, compliance, collaboration, membership growth, resource utilization, and the skills required to increase public awareness of The American Legion’s mission and programs within California communities.

Participation in an organization like The American Legion becomes a richer experience when one has an understanding of its history, purpose, and objectives. The capacity to influence the organization and its mission is amplified with knowledge, and this knowledge becomes an asset. To maximize the impact of newfound knowledge, individuals are encouraged to consider mentoring other Legionnaires.

For those interested in attending California American Legion College, the next session, CALC 1-2024, will be held from April 19 to 21 at American Legion Post 77 in Woodland, California. Enrollment for this class will open on Feb. 1.

A prerequisite for enrollment is completing The American Legion Basic Training Course, which is available online through the National organization, free of charge. This course can be completed in just a couple of hours, and every Legion member can benefit from this resource. Individuals can email their ALEI Basic Training completion certificate to calc@calegion.org. More information and enrollment details can be found here.

For any inquiries or to seek additional information, individuals are encouraged to contact CALC@caLegion.org.
