I. Description of Operations Financed: Professional Military Education (PME) programs enhance and develop critical leadership skills of commissioned officers, civilians, and noncommissioned officers and prepare them for progressively more responsible positions. PME resident programs include Air War College, Air Command and Staff College, Squadron Officer School, Aerospace Basic Course, Airman Leadership
Schools, Non-Commissioned Officer Academy, and the Senior Non-Commissioned Officer Academy. All except the Non-Commissioned Officer
Academy and Airman Leadership Schools may also be taken by correspondence.
II. Force Structure Summary: The Air Force has four Officer PME schools located at Maxwell Air Force Base. Air War College is the Air
Force’s Senior Service School and Air Command and Staff College is the Intermediate Service School. Two Service Schools provide PME for junior officers: Squadron Officer School and Aerospace Basic Course. The Air Force has one Senior NCO Academy, thirteen NCO Academies
(includes the ANG ALS), and sixty-six Airman Leadership Schools throughout the world. Other professional education opportunities include graduate education and professional continuing education. The Air Force has one in-residence graduate school, the School of Engineering and
Management Studies at Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT). AFIT students can earn degrees in engineering, science, logistics, and acquisition. For graduate studies other than those offered at AFIT, students may attend civilian institutions throughout the country. Professional continuing education courses (20 weeks or less) are held at various locations to include AFIT, Air University (AU), and Air Education and
Training Command (AETC), as well as civilian institutions.
