AUXINFO - AUXINFO allows all Auxiliary members to track their progress in the training, certifications and other activities. All Auxiliary members have a quick and easy way to follow their progress in gaining qualifications or tracking hours in programs. All the data that is in AUXDATA, for which you need a password, is also in AUXINFO. AUXINFO is a read only website program that allows members to review their progress. See our How to Library for information on using this service.

Auxiliary eDirectory - Need to find a Division officer or a fellow flotilla member's contact info? Sign up for the national eDirectory. This searchable directory contains contact and office information for every Auxiliarist. While you are there please check to make sure all your contact information is current. See our How to Library for information on using this service.

Forms - The Department is responsible for creation and maintenance of all official National Auxiliary forms in printable, online fill-able, and electronic submission format.
