8 JAX AIR NEWS, NASJACKSONVILLE, Thursday, April 23, 2009 Apply now for NWC Fleet Seminar Program From Naval War College Public Affairs The Naval War College (NWC) is accepting online applications through June 30 for the next academic cycle of the Fleet Seminar Program. Offered through NWC's College of Distance Education, the Fleet Seminar Program enables officers to complete Joint Professional Military Education (JPME) Phase I where they live and work. Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard officers in the grade of 0-3 and above and officers from other services in the grade of 0-4 and above are eli- gible. Federal civilian employees in the paygrade of GS-11 or equivalent or above are also eligible. "In today's joint world, a Naval War College edu- cation is something that any mid-grade officer and above really needs to function in a joint situ- ation," said professor Walt Wildemann, deputy director of the College of Distance Education at NWC. Designed to meet the individual needs of stu- dents who are unable to attend NWC in residence in Newport, the Fleet Seminar Program deliv- ers the NWC intermediate curriculum in an evening seminar format. NWC fac- ulty members bring the courses to approximately 1,200 students each aca- demic year at 20 addition- al instructional locations across the United States. Beginning in early September and continuing through May, seminars are one night per week for three hours per night. Derived from the 10- month NWC intermediate resident core curriculum, the students are taught three courses: strategy and war, joint maritime operations and national security decision making. Each core course is com- pleted during one academ- ic year, and completing all three courses in this program satisfies JPME Phase I requirements, a critical career milestone. The curriculum is also accredited toward comple- tion of the NWC Master of Arts degree in nation- al security and strategic studies. The core curriculum can also be completed by eligible students through NWC's Web-enabled pro- gram or CD ROM pro- gram. The Web-enabled program delivers the cur- riculum in an online for- mat worldwide where students are assigned to cohorts and study under the tutelage of an NWC online faculty member. NWC's College of Distance Education pro- grams incur no cost or additional service obli- gation for students. All required course materials are provided by the Naval War College. Applications for the Fleet Seminar Program, CD ROM and Web-enabled programs are open contin- uously online and can be found at the Naval War College Web site www. usnwc. edu/admissions/.
