Joint Targeting School
The Joint Targeting School provides mid-career military
operations and intelligence personnel destined for unified
commands, the Joint Staff, defense agencies, and service-designated
targeting positions with formal training in the intricate
processes that govern the targeting procedures used by various
units within a joint operation.
These
processes ensure the right weapon hits the proper target.
There
are four training opportunities offered by the school:
• The
Joint Targeting Staff Course is a three-week course providing
the only Department of Defense venue for formal joint
operational-level targeting training. Attendees include
operations, plans,
and intelligence personnel from the Joint Staff, unified
command staffs, and joint force-eligible component staffs.
Quotas are available for supporting national agencies
and lower echelon component command staffs.
• The Joint Targeting Applications Course is a two-week course
designed to provide operational-level operations and
intelligence personnel with a detailed background in weapons employment
considerations and methods.
• The
Joint Targeting School also offers a one-week Battle Damage
Assessment Course for operations and intelligence
personnel involved in the battle damage assessment
(BDA) process. This course provides students with a detailed
background in damage assessment and the flow of information during the
three phases of BDA.
For localized training, the school offers Mobile Training
Teams that are designed to provide on-site familiarization
level training over the entire Joint Targeting Cycle.
The
Joint Targeting School supports the command’s
Joint Force Trainer mission through the Joint
Warfighting Center.
