CSRS UPCOMING PROGRAMS

CSRS charges no tuition for its programs; additionally, some meals are provided gratis. Typically, participants or their organizations pay for their own travel, lodging and per diem. On occasion, CSRS has funding which can be used to defray some of these costs of attendance. Unless noted otherwise, all programs are either on the NPS campus or in the Monterey, California area.
