After five weeks of training and education covering different topics from both NATO and UN Core Pre-Deployment and Specialized Training Materials including “Blue Beret Exercise” 15 officers finished the course – 12 from Bosnia and Herzegovina, 1 from Albania, 1 from Macedonia and 1 from Serbia. Instructors on the course included PSOTC Directing Staff and instructors from Turkey, Croatia, Bulgaria and Hungary. The course culminated with the Exercise BLUE BERET. During this exercise, students were exposed to different operational situations which required them to carry out in-depth analysis of the complex peacekeeping environment and conducted interagency planning in cooperation with UN agencies and other actors in the field to deal with the unforeseen situations. As many times before, UN Office in Sarajevo supported the exercise with the representatives from UNRC, UNDP, UN Women and UNHCR. Additionally, ICRC and representative of BiH Ministry of Security took part on the exercise. LtC Branislav Stevanović from the Serbian Armed Forces was declared as the best student on the course.
