Program Visitor

 

The Flotilla Staff Officer of Marine Dealer Visitors will exercise staff responsibility and supervision over all MDV matters, will maintain close liaison with the Division Officer of the Marine Dealer Visitor program (SO-MV), and will coordinate and cooperate with the FSO-MT to encourage and increase the number of qualified marine dealer visitors. This officer will make and maintain close contact with marine dealers, current records of visitations, decal distribution, plan and perform workshops, member MDV training, and ensure that all forms for MDV are correctly completed and promptly forwarded. The FSO-MV reports monthly to the VFC, checks periodically that all qualified MDV examiners conduct their annual quota of marine dealer visits of four (4) per examiner, and that each MDV examiner does not lose their qualification status as a result. He or she will formulate and execute a plan to ensure all marine dealers are covered and provided with decals, that they receive an updated schedule of PE courses and VSC stations in their area. Dealers should receive handouts on these PE and VE programs and any USCG provided materials.
