Chief petty officers from the U.S. Navy and partner nations in Eastern Europe kicked off the Eurasian Partnership Capstone Senior Non-Commissioned Officer (NCO) Development Training Workshop at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Naples, Sept. 8.
The workshop’s concept is to promote and share ideas with NCOs from Romania, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Georgia, Turkey and Azerbaijian. Through various training scenarios, each nation will better understand how each country instills leadership qualities in its servicemembers.
The workshop will be an interactive and cover a range of topics such as leadership principles, disaster preparedness and include an overview of each participating nation’s NCO structure. They will also have opportunities to meet and interact with U.S. Navy chief petty officers (CPO), chief selectees and participate in CPO-365.
The Workshop will end with a graduation ceremony for the Allied NCOs, Sept. 12.
