PSOSC is designed to develop the knowledge and skills of nationally trained staff officers and non-commissioned officers (NCOs) at the tactical level required for assignments in multinational tactical-level headquarters conducting NATO-led Peace Support Operations. Thirty three participants from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Chile, Germany, Greece, Jordan, North Macedonia, Qatar, Slovakia, and Türkiye participated in and completed the course successfully.

 

The course provided valuable insights from PSOTC directing staff, guest instructors, and lecturers representing the Canadian Armed Forces, the Italian Post Conflict Operations Study Centre (PCOSC), the NATO Security Force Assistance Centre of Excellence (SFA COE), the 11th Outreach Group of the British Armed Forces, , the Ministry of Security of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the International Organization for Migration and AFBIH. This multinational collaboration aims to enhance interoperability and operational effectiveness among participating nations, providing staff officers and NCOs with the essential tools needed for success in a rapidly evolving global security environment, taking care of human security within a context of peace support operations.

 

The PSOTC Commandant, Lieutenant Colonel Damir Alibašić extended gratitude to all course participants, guest instructors, and PSOTC staff for their engagement over the past two weeks, asserting that their enthusiasm played a vital role in making this course successful. In closing, he encouraged students to maintain connections with PSOTC and to continue collaborating on advancing peace and security initiatives globally.
