{{Butrain manual navbox}}


The specialists of the Imperial Andermani Navy are trained to fulfill the complex tasks of shipboard duty. The courses are recommended for both Enlisted and Officers.  The Tsingtao College of Naval Specialization courses are designed to build and broaden a spacer’s knowledge so that they can take on larger responsibilities as they progress in rank. The divisional courses will encompass multiple specialty areas while introducing more detailed information about each specialty.  Each area of study is designed to provide basic specialized knowledge of each area initially and then to integrate with other specializations to provide a bigger picture for senior NCOs. The final level provides a complete picture of the department for officers.  The departmental courses cover all the specialties within the department at a higher level. The goal is that in time the spacer will come to see the interdependence and synergy of all the areas within a department so that senior NCOs and officers can more efficiently manage their crew.

== PAMA Light Attack Craft School ==
The LAC School represents the wide-ranging system defense craft that are part of the IAN’s defense policies: With as many planets are part of the Empire and parts being policed by IAN units, there is a lack of hyper-capable ships to go around. As such the Wehrkreis, War Fleets, are the principal response to active threats; however remote stations may have to resort to LAC’s. As such, these commanders of these craft are required to go through a more rigorous course to ensure that they are prepared for any and all threats that may arrive on station with their limited system resources. The LAC School is a high honor and seen as the fastest route to a command position because it is made up of only the best and the brightest that the Empire can offer!  LAC houses two primary technical divisions (Operations and Tactical) with each of them composed of three technical sections each.
