MILITARY SCIENCE PROGRAM 129
Northern Warfare Cadet Orientation Course (NWCOC)
Location: Ft. Greely, Alaska. A two-week program conducted at the Northern Warfare Training Center
at Fort Greely, AK. The course is designed to train cadets in the skills required for conducting military
operations in typical mountainous terrain found throughout the world. Special emphasis is placed on
basic military mountaineering skills.
This course focuses on mobility in mountainous terrain, rappelling, and climbing skills. The training is
demanding both physically and mentally but also extremely rewarding. Those who live up to the challenge
come away with not only a vast knowledge of climbing skills but also a new level of self confidence
born from facing adversity and overcoming it.
United Kingdom Officer Training Camp (UKROTC)
A three-week program hosted by British Army ROTC counterparts. UKOTC provides cadets the opportunity
to conduct ROTC training with a foreign nation.
Cadet Troop Leader Training (CTLT)
CTLT provides select advanced camp graduates the opportunity to increase their leadership experience
through assignments to platoon leadership positions with active duty Army units for 3 or 4 weeks.
This challenge is a definite learning experience, allowing you to gain a perspective on what you will be
facing as a future officer. Generally, you are placed in a platoon leader position, leading 30+ soldiers
and responsible for millions of dollars of equipment! While there, the cadet will enhance leadership
skills and learn tasks associated with being an officer in the Army. If a cadet is assigned to a unit on
jump status, and the cadet is already Airborne qualified, the cadet may participate in unit jumps on a
permissive basis with approval by the CG and Cadet Command. The cadet receives an OER upon
completion.
Nurse Summer Training Program (NSTP)
This training is only available to nurse cadets and provides opportunities to develop and practice a clinical
phase of instruction at Army Medical Command Treatment Facilities worldwide. The cadets receive
an OER upon completion.
