Enhance officer training by prioritizing versatility over specialization. Leaders should be well-rounded first, specialists later. Emphasize common values and cooperation, add intercultural and interoperability training, and use basic military training for selection. Break away from narrow-mindedness with diverse language training, intercultural awareness, and expanded cadet exchange programs like Erasmus. Integrate interchangeable military and academic modules, maintain a balance between the two, and establish common minimum military requirements. Foster virtual cooperation among cadets through shared projects toward a more prepared and adaptable military force.

Syndicate B Officer training for Future Conflict: Versatility vs. Specialization
The way of doing • Versatility first, specialization next: • Leader first, then specialist; • Every specialist - member of the “Military Family” with common values (non monetary values); • Cooperation, intercultural training, interoperability dimension must be added to general training; • Basic military training – as a selection tool for future officers; • Specialization only (without wider knowledge) is leading to narrow minded officers.
Way ahead • Multiple diverse foreign language training; • Intercultural awareness; • Extend and intensify cadet exchange (Erasmus); • Unified blocks/modules for Curriculums: • Common interchangeable military modules; • Common Academic modules; • Balance between Military and Academic education. • Setup of common Minimum Military requirements; • Virtual cooperation among cadets (common project, paper contest, etc.).
