OPENING CEREMONY OF JUNIOR COMMAND AND STAFF COURSE 08/16

On Tuesday 12 July 2016, the Commandant RDF Command and Staff College, Maj Gen JB Kazura officially opened the Junior Command and Staff Course (JCSC) 08/16.

The JCSC 08/16 comprises 38 student officers in the ranks of majors and captains. The course will run for 17 weeks from 11 July 2016 to 04 November 2016.
The JCSC improves the officers’ command and staff competencies by giving them the requisite attitude, knowledge, and skills at the tactical level. It also prepares them for higher military courses such as the Senior Command and Staff Course.
In his remarks, the Commandant congratulated the students for having been selected to attend the course and urged them to use the opportunity to aim high to uphold personal pride and institutional trust in them. He assured the students that what they will learn will immensely enable them to contribute positively in their future assignments and earn the RDF and Rwanda an international recognition whenever they will be on external missions and/or courses.
