Training Opportunities

  1. UNO
  2. Army ROTC
  3. Training Opportunities

These training opportunities are only available through UNO's Army ROTC.

Army Airborne School

Becoming a paratrooper at Airborne School is a unique experience requiring special dedication and a desire to be challenged mentally and physically. This three-week course, also known as Basic Airborne Course (BAC), teaches Soldiers the techniques involved in parachuting from airplanes and landing safely. The final test includes a non-assisted jump.

The purpose of the BAC is to qualify the volunteer in the use of the parachute as a means of combat deployment and to develop leadership, self-confidence, and an aggressive spirit through mental and physical conditioning.

Airborne Soldiers have a long and distinguished tradition of being an elite body of fighting men and women–people who have always set the example for determination and courage. When you volunteer for this training, you accept the challenge of continuing this tradition. The Airborne Soldiers of the past set high standards–it is now up to you to maintain them!

Army Airborne School

Cadet Troop Leadership Training

Provide Cadets an opportunity to develop leadership skills in an Active Duty / Reserve Unit training environment as they shadow and learn from incumbent Platoon Leaders: command, training, administration, logistics.

Cadet Troop Leadership Training

Army Air Assault School

U.S. Army Air Assault School is a 10-day course designed to prepare Soldiers for insertion, evacuation, and pathfinder missions that call for the use of multipurpose transportation and assault helicopters. Air Assault training focuses on the mastery of rappelling techniques and sling load procedures, skills that involve intense concentration and a commitment to safety and preparation.

Most Air Assault cadets will attend Sabalauski Air Assault School, located at Fort Campbell, Ky. Training is broken into three phases, each lasting three days: Combat Assault Phase, Sling Load Phase, and Rappel Phase. On graduation day, cadets will undergo a 12-mile rucksack march. When they complete the march, they will earn their wings as official Air Assault Soldiers.

Air Assault School is necessarily physically and mentally demanding, as Soldiers will be required to handle heavy equipment and perform dangerous tasks under extremely stressful conditions. Successful candidates must possess a keen eye for detail and a dedication to meticulous preparation.

Army Air Assault School

Provide Cadets an opportunity to train with registered nurses at an Army Medical Facility. Training is up to four weeks in either the United States or Germany. It is typically conduced after completion of students Junior Year, giving college credit and a clinical training opportunity.

Project Global Officer

Project Global Officer (Project GO) is a Department of Defense funded program that provides summer study abroad scholarships for ROTC students to study foreign languages, gain regional expertise, and develop cross-cultural communication skills. These scholarships pay for tuition, program fees, international airfare, room and board, and most other costs associated with participation. Working in support of Army, Air Force, and Navy ROTC Headquarters, Project GO facilitates collaborative efforts both among universities and ROTC leadership.

Since 2007, Project GO institutions have provided over 5,600 domestic and overseas summer scholarships to ROTC students for critical language study. Project GO has strengthened university infrastructure in the critical languages and created venues for communication amongst ROTC leadership and university personnel. More details can be found at https://www.rotcprojectgo.org/
