NATO CIMIC Awareness Course
Aim
The primary aim of the NATO CIMIC Awareness Course (NCAC) is to generate a basic understanding of NATO CIMIC, including foundational knowledge on the related contexts, concepts and frameworks. The latest NATO CIMIC doctrinal framework generates the basis for the NCAC by introducing the essential principles and guidance to illustrate how NATO CIMIC and its core activities apply across all NATO core tasks in peacetime, crisis, and conflict. The course also highlights how CIMIC contributes to other NATO priorities, such as Human Security and Cross-Cutting Topics and aims at raising awareness about CIMIC among both military personnel and civilians.
The course consists of seven chapters and takes an average 150 minutes to complete. At the end of each chapter, a short quiz helps assess your learning progress, and successful completion of all quizzes earns you a certificate.
