Objectives
Although MoDA Advisor Short Courses address objectives and topics identified in conjunction with the requestor, the core focus is always on improving knowledge and understanding of core advising principles and methodologies, basic advisory skills, and associated topics. Once requests are analyzed the DSCU trainers create specially designed courses which are conducted in a seminar style, with 10-20 students per class. The goal is to create a participatory learning environment, using exercises to reinforce learning. Executive Courses also provide the opportunity to provide current information on policies, organizational structures, and topics of interest to senior people, often as part of their pre-deployment preparation. They serve a valuable function in helping people to “network” and begin to establish relationships with their teammates prior to deploying.
