Joining the Seals is more than just slapping a repair limpet controller on your ship. We pride ourselves on the quality of our Mechanics,Seals, and so require a few steps before you can become a fully-fledged member.

Step 2: Fill Out your Profile
In order to feed your CMDR information into our database, and add your name to our paperwork and other forms, you need to complete some fields on our website. From your profile (which you can find here), You must fill out the "My CMDRs" section. You should also take this time to register a few IRC names, available through the same link. These will be explained in greater detail during your basic training.
Optionally, however, a fun thing to do is register some of your ships to get your own unique Seal Ship Registry Code. This is just for fun, however, and is not required.
Step 3: Basic Training
To ensure that all of our Seals are trained and ready to respond to any hull emergency, we have a two-step training process. Due to the low numbers of trainers we have at our disposal, we have a series of video-and-quiz style training modules that should take no more than two hours to complete and does not need to be done in one sitting. These videos cover a variety of different materials, including the SOPs, how our site works, third party tools, and the features of Elite. The video section will be followed up by an in-game drill ran by one of our training staff. After the conclusion of both of these modules, you will be ready to go and certified as a trained Hull Seal. This will make you eligible to be assigned repairs as cases come in, and will mark you as a full member in the Seals.
The training links can be found in the "Seal Links" section of your profile, or at https://hullseals.space/trainings.
In order to complete your drill, it is required that you know and are familiar with our Standard Operating Procedures, or SOPs. The most up-to-date copies can be found at all times by visiting our Knowledge Base's copy, at https://hullse.al/SOP.
