00:07.769 --> 00:10.109
The mission of Space Delta 13 is to

00:10.109 --> 00:12.750
provide premier space education to the

00:12.750 --> 00:14.861
United States Space Force guardians ,

00:15.109 --> 00:17.190
Department of Defense members , and

00:17.190 --> 00:20.010
international partners . The avenues of

00:20.010 --> 00:22.121
education that we provide are officer

00:22.121 --> 00:23.920
session , professional military

00:23.920 --> 00:26.142
education , and professional continuing

00:26.142 --> 00:29.799
education . Officer session is the

00:29.799 --> 00:31.969
commissioning source to which each

00:31.969 --> 00:34.770
officer enters the United States Space

00:34.770 --> 00:37.409
Force . Our members are involved in

00:37.409 --> 00:40.490
Officer Training School , OTS , Reserve

00:40.490 --> 00:43.689
Officer Training Corps , ROTC , and the

00:43.689 --> 00:45.578
United States Air Force Academy .

00:47.459 --> 00:49.619
Delta 13 also provides professional

00:49.619 --> 00:51.786
military education for the officer and

00:51.786 --> 00:54.959
the enlisted corps . Officers of the

00:54.959 --> 00:56.737
Space Force are receiving their

00:56.737 --> 00:58.681
professional military education at

00:58.681 --> 01:01.029
Johns Hopkins University at the School

01:01.029 --> 01:03.400
of Advanced International Studies in

01:03.400 --> 01:06.599
Washington DC . While there , they

01:06.599 --> 01:09.510
learn a higher level of leadership

01:09.510 --> 01:11.566
through space , the contingencies of

01:11.566 --> 01:13.750
space , and how does that integrate ,

01:13.760 --> 01:15.760
and what do they need to know to be

01:15.760 --> 01:17.871
able to present that as they progress

01:17.871 --> 01:20.449
throughout their career . For the

01:20.449 --> 01:22.393
enlisted side of the space force ,

01:22.393 --> 01:25.050
professional military education is home

01:25.050 --> 01:26.980
at the Fossler Academy . We have

01:26.980 --> 01:28.650
Fellowship 1 , Fellowship 2 ,

01:28.769 --> 01:30.919
Fellowship 3 , they learn leadership

01:30.919 --> 01:32.975
and management principles . How do I

01:32.975 --> 01:35.141
become that better leader and how do I

01:35.141 --> 01:37.363
help my people , and they do it through

01:37.363 --> 01:40.410
the experiential learning process . We

01:40.410 --> 01:42.040
also provide the space force

01:42.040 --> 01:44.040
professional continuing education .

01:44.480 --> 01:46.591
Everyone comes in the military , they

01:46.591 --> 01:48.647
get that basic foundation of what is

01:48.647 --> 01:50.758
the military and the space force . To

01:50.758 --> 01:52.813
go to that next level throughout our

01:52.813 --> 01:54.980
career , how do we gain stronger skill

01:54.980 --> 01:57.202
sets ? Where do we get that opportunity

01:57.202 --> 01:59.424
to integrate with other branches of the

01:59.424 --> 02:01.424
military , with other nations , and

02:01.424 --> 02:03.419
talk about how do we do this job ?

02:03.750 --> 02:05.806
That's where professional continuing

02:05.806 --> 02:08.130
education comes in . Some of the

02:08.130 --> 02:10.889
entities that fall within PCE or , for

02:10.889 --> 02:13.000
example , the National Security Space

02:13.000 --> 02:15.289
Institute , where we have two different

02:15.289 --> 02:17.456
colleges , we have what's known as our

02:17.456 --> 02:19.567
College of Professional Development ,

02:19.567 --> 02:21.789
gives a lot of our foundational courses

02:21.789 --> 02:24.289
space 100 , 200 , 300 , and then we

02:24.289 --> 02:26.369
have our other side , which is the

02:26.369 --> 02:28.460
College of Space Warfare , more

02:28.460 --> 02:30.770
technical , more detailed , uh talk

02:30.770 --> 02:32.990
about offensive , defensive , orbital

02:32.990 --> 02:35.960
warfare , things of that nature . The

02:35.960 --> 02:38.016
primary students that are trained at

02:38.016 --> 02:40.270
the NSSI are Space Force guardians ,

02:40.440 --> 02:42.662
joint partners , all DOD , you can take

02:42.662 --> 02:44.718
all 6 branches of the military , and

02:44.718 --> 02:48.029
then 60+ international partners . Delta

02:48.029 --> 02:50.949
13 is headquartered in the National

02:50.949 --> 02:53.029
Capital Region with additional

02:53.029 --> 02:54.973
locations spread across the United

02:54.973 --> 02:58.809
States . Education is

02:58.809 --> 03:00.729
so important for the space domain

03:00.729 --> 03:02.929
because as fast as technology is

03:02.929 --> 03:05.207
growing , as fast as things are moving ,

03:05.250 --> 03:08.970
we have to stay in front of that . For

03:08.970 --> 03:10.803
this reason , the space force is

03:10.803 --> 03:13.089
finding new and innovative ways to

03:13.089 --> 03:16.380
partner with industry and with academia

03:16.380 --> 03:19.440
and universities to try to stay ahead

03:19.440 --> 03:20.889
of the speed of change .
