Military technology is an ever-expanding art that involves complex systems, hardware and technologies that possess ever increasing civilian applications. Dependent upon critical thought processes and the ability to utilize these evolving technologies, today’s military personnel are engaged in mission planning, risks assessment, identifying potential hazards, supervising preparations, identifying and maintaining assets, training personnel, and conducting and supervising additional duties. This certificate program encompasses and addresses these required skills.
