Take Basic Training for free at legion.org/alei.
Legion training from your home. Enhancements have been made to the American Legion Education Institute – also known as Basic Training – which is the official training program for officers, members, Legion College applicants and those who simply want to expand their knowledge of the organization.
The 2022 version has been rewritten, updated, streamlined and enhanced with videos, digital photos, clickable links, a historical timeline and additional features, but the structure has continued roughly the same, revolving around what the Legion does, its history and today’s Four Pillars, with a quiz after each section. The training is now available online or via a mobile device.
Basic Training is free for all Legion Family members; and $9.95 for non-members. Take the training course at www.legion.org/alei.
