Overview

SW FAC-D develops SW instructors; equipping them with necessary skills to train combat minded warriors, knowledge of learning theories, and psychological approaches for improving individual candidate motivation and performance. They must be skilled in developing students in realistic training environments, and therefore must have keener situational awareness. They must use that situational awareness, paired with good judgment, to make appropriate instructional decisions within the curricular framework.
