Sailors gathered in USS John C. Stennis’ (CVN 74) hangar bay for a Navy College Program for Afloat College Education (NCPACE) sign-up event, Aug 22.

Representatives from NCPACE were available to inform Sailors about and sign them up for NCPACE courses.

“NCPACE is a program that’s been around over 30 years,” said Gilbert Williams, the Navy Voluntary Education region advisor for Navy Region Northwest. “It’s a program specifically designed for deployed ships and submarines where you don’t have to go online or don’t have to take any class at an actual campus.”
