EspañolSTAFF COLLEGE
(Redirected from US military staff colleges)
'Staff colleges' (also 'command and staff colleges' or 'war colleges') train military officers in the administrative, staff and policy apects of their profession. It is usual for such training to occur at several levels in a career. For example, as a captain to a single service command and staff school to prepare for company command and equivalent staff posts, as a major to a single or joint service college to prepare for battalion command and equivalent staff posts, and as a colonel or brigadier to a higher staff college to prepare for brigade and division command and equivalent postings.
Well known examples of military staff colleges include the United Kingdom's Joint Services Command and Staff College, Shrivenham, and Royal College of Defence Studies, London; the U.S. Naval War College, Newport, the Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth, the Air University, Maxwell AFB, and the National Defense University, Washington in the United States; the NATO Defence College, and the Defence Services Staff College, Wellington (India).
The success of Staff Colleges spawned, in the mid-twentieth century, a civilian imitation in what are called administrative staff colleges. These institutions apply some of the principles of the education of the military colleges to the executive development of managers from both the public and private sectors of the economy. The first and best-known administrative staff college was that established in Britain at Greenlands near Henley, Oxfordshire and now re-named Henley Management College.
