The course is being attended by 24 members of the Albanian AF from all three components (Navy, Air Force and Land components) with ranks ranging from staff sergeants to lieutenant colonels. The aim of the training is to prepare staff officers and senior NCOs from the Albanian Armed Forces for assignments on Peace Support Operations (PSO), by giving them a working knowledge of the skills required for NATO/UN staff procedures, in order to function as an effective staff member at battalion/brigade Headquarters in a multinational environment.
