The course equips graduates to plan, command, and assess missions while integrating UAS capabilities into wider operational frameworks, including land-supported operations and targeting processes.

To provide pilots with foundational flying skills required to safely and effectively operate a UAS in all modes of control through progressive training missions in both simulator and live environments. This course prepares pilots for conversion to chosen airframes.

This course introduces students to the fundamentals of Uncrewed Aerial System (UAS) sensor operations in support of ISR missions. It covers payload handling, EO/IR sensor basics, target detection, and imagery interpretation. Students will learn how to operate sensors effectively and contribute to the ISR cycle in support of tactical operations.

Designed for experienced UAS sensor operators, this course enhances skills in multi-sensor integration, advanced target tracking, and mission-driven collection. Students will apply ISR principles to complex scenarios, working in coordination with analysts and commanders to deliver actionable intelligence and support decision-making across the operational environment.

This course trains UAS operators in the tactical deployment of uncrewed systems to support mission objectives across land, maritime, and urban environments. Focusing on mission planning, dynamic tasking, and threat-informed employment, students will learn how to align flight profiles, sensor usage, and communications to support real-time ISR, targeting, and force protection within a tactical context.

This course provides a foundational understanding of operational-level planning, equipping students with the principles, processes, and terminology used in joint and combined operations. It introduces the relationship between strategic objectives and operational outcomes, emphasizing the role of planning in synchronizing effects across domains to achieve campaign success.

Designed for personnel involved in the development and execution of operational plans, this course builds practical competence in campaign design, phased planning, centre of gravity analysis, and operational art. Students will apply doctrinal frameworks to realistic scenarios, integrating joint capabilities to deliver coherent, effect-driven plans that respond to complex and evolving threats.

This module teaches students how to apply the 7 Questions Combat Estimate to develop tactical and operational plans under time pressure. Emphasis is placed on clarity of mission, understanding enemy and friendly intent, and generating options that align with commander’s guidance. Suitable for staff officers, commanders, and planners working in dynamic operational environments.

Focusing on the critical role of intelligence in operational planning, this course develops the skills needed to conduct IPOE effectively. Students will learn to define the battlespace, evaluate threats, assess adversary courses of action, and produce products that shape planning, targeting, and force posture decisions. It bridges the intelligence-operations divide to enable integrated planning.

This course trains commanders and staff in the development of mission-level plans that align with operational objectives. Students will apply tactical doctrine to generate schemes of manoeuvre, synchronisation matrices, and mission briefs. It emphasises agility, tempo, and coordination across combined arms and enablers to achieve tactical success in contested environments.

This advanced course explores the integration of ISR, C2, and fires to identify, track, and engage time-sensitive targets. Students will analyze killchain models, targeting cycles, and decision timelines to support dynamic targeting in both permissive and contested domains. The course emphasizes real-time coordination, legal compliance, and effects integration to generate lethal and non-lethal outcomes.

This course introduces the fundamentals of cognitive warfare, exploring how state and non-state actors exploit perceptions, beliefs, and decision-making processes to shape behaviour and achieve strategic objectives. Students will examine the cognitive domain as a battlespace, learning how disinformation, influence operations, and psychological manipulation impact individuals, societies, and military operations.

Designed for operational planners, intelligence professionals, and information specialists, this course builds practical skills in identifying, countering, and applying cognitive effects.
