What are some military education schools for officers and what do they teach you?

Once you're a commissioned officer, you can attend various military schools and further your military education. What are some of these schools and what do they teach you?What are some military education schools for officers and what do they teach you?If you are a commissioned in the Army your schools or Military Education Level is as follows:



Officer Basic Course - small unit leadership; tactics, your military speciality. For Combat Arms officers there is a Ranger School (advanced small unit tactics); Airborne or Air Assault School, IMPOC.



After 4-5 years you are sent to your Advance Course (1LT/CPT) where you start learning Battalion and Brigade Staff Leadership courses.



In the past there was the Combined Arms Staff Service School (CAS3) where you refined your staff skills; however this course has been rolled into the Advance Course.



When you are a MAJ/LTC you selected (picked) for Command and General Staff College (CGSC). There are three options for this course: correspondence, two week schools and full time. There are other speciality schools such as the Naval Post Graduate Studies Program etc... where the "best and brightest" can attend.



The last school for Officers is War the College (LTC/COL) which is based on "How the Army Runs" (I attached the link for an older version), policy or what I call E-Ring knowledge (Pentagon). There are other programs such as the Industrial College of the Armed Forces depending on which school you get.



There are a host of other short courses ranging from Path Finder, Jump Master, Instructor courses that one takes to further his/her knowledge. In addition there is the SF Qualification Course (Q Course); where if selected you are qualified and make the course are entitled to wear the flash.

How to become Jedi knights?What are some military education schools for officers and what do they teach you?I'm not too sure just what type of schools you are referring to. My son is in the Air National Guard and attends Virginia Military Institute. He is commissioning in the Air Force, after graduation this Spring. Some of his "Brother Rats" have already gotten their commission and will report shortly after graduation. My son's schedule was too full to take on Officer's Training during the school year, that's why he is doing so after Graduation. VMI is a military college. There's West Point, the Citadel, the Naval Academy, the list goes on...Don't know if this helped any...What are some military education schools for officers and what do they teach you?
The US military offers a war college that most officers who wish to rise in rank and stay in the military service, must or should attend.



Not having attended war college, I can only guess that tactics, logistics, weapons knowledge and training, leadership, and other subject matter that I know nothing or little about, are all part of the subject matter offered at war college.



Today, an officer candidate in the Navy can apply to medical school, and upon acceptance to that school, the officer can take a sabbatical to attend medical school, at the Navy's expense, provided the candidate will join active duty when not in school, and upon graduation, give the Navy six years of active duty, both as an intern and as a medical doctor.What are some military education schools for officers and what do they teach you?for Officers there is finger painting / finger pointing 101

Naval Academy

Air Force Academy

West Point

Merchant Marine Academy



Which are all more like colleges specific to the various services. Many of the degrees earned are in engineering and the sciences.



Each service has its own "in house" programs such as Army War College, Navy War College, Air War College, etc, which are more in line with military tactics and strategy for Lt. Colonels and higher. They also have courses for field grade and company grade officers more in keeping with their role in the over all picture.



They also send promising officers to civilian college for more advanced studies, such as medicine and the law.
The biggest one is Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey CA. there are students from all five Branches as well as 30 plus allied nations who attend classes here. There are a number of different Masters and Doctorate Programs available. Not everyone gets the chance to attend, however,



Each Branch also offers it's own War College, for Branch specific Tactical instruction. Again, not everyone gets to go.
