Senior and Junior Officer Networking Event
WHO: Cadets, Midshipmen and Junior Officers (01-03) and Senior Officers (06 and above)
WHEN: Wednesday, 26 July at 1800
WHERE: Determined by number of attendees. Minimum of 60 participants needed.
ATTIRE: Business Casual
In a relaxed environment, junior officers will have an opportunity to engage senior officers on their best practices and their views on where their service is heading, etc. Junior Officers can engage with some of the Sea Service’s most influential leaders. This event is designed for junior and senior officers to share with each other on a more personal level, but remain professional.
The senior officers will be at the event for the junior officer. If you have trouble finding the appropriate opportunity to speak with senior officers, you will appreciate this social. Senior officers at this event want to hear from you and offer their advice and opinions to your most pressing questions.
This is not a structured event, but we will take time at various points to award door prizes to the junior officers in attendance. You must be present to claim a door prize.
This is a 411 event not a 911 event. If your career is at an emergency point (911), you will gain more by having that discussion during a one-on-one career counseling session on Thursday morning. You can sign up for a session with a senior officer to discuss your specific issue by using the careering counseling tab on the registration page.
NNOA STEM Youth Event
This event requires prolonged periods of walking and standing.
STEM Program Application
The National Naval Officers Association (NNOA) is accepting applications for its Second Annual Youth Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics (STEM) Day event on July 26, 2017. The event will offer unique opportunities to disadvantaged and underserved community students to explore prospective careers in the fields of robotics and unmanned systems. Participants will engage with student built-and-designed robotic submarine teams featured in the 2017 International RoboSub Competition.
The morning segment of the program will be held from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM at SSC Pacific TRANSDEC, 1800 Cabrillo Memorial Drive, San Diego, CA 92106. From 12:00 PM to 3:00 PM, participants will have a guided tour of an air wing hangar and operational patrol boat. This event is open to all San Diego area students in grades 8 through 12.
Students will be mentored by military officers and STEM professionals, experience STEM within the space and sea service environment, and learn about military scholarships and training programs.
The Youth STEM DAY is happening in conjunction with the 2017 NNOA Professional Development Symposium at the Admiral Kidd Catering Conference Center, San Diego, CA July 26-27, 2017.
