One of the latest products of the Navy's Revolution in Training, the new Center for Service Support (CSS) officially stood up operations Oct. 1. The Navy Supply Corps School (NSCS) in Athens, Ga., is the site of the new learning center designed to be the knowledge manager for 16 enlisted ratings. The school's record of training excellence and focus on service oriented training, including logistics and supply, makes Athens a natural fit.
The CSS will be directly responsible for the personal and professional career development of over 46,000 enlisted Navy Sailors in the logistics, administrative, and media areas throughout the fleet. The center will develop and maintain highly detailed Sailor continuums that will define the knowledge, skills and abilities (including military qualifications and civilian certifications) that Sailors must master to achieve specific career milestones. It will be directly responsible for developing and delivering the tools and opportunities Sailors need for their personal and professional development.
The CSS will also provide the crucial link between individual training and fleet mission accomplishment. In addition, the center will be charged with the curriculum authority, maintenance and delivery for all training elements that currently deliver logistics, administrative and media rate training.
CAPT Bob Monette, NSCS Commanding Officer, has assumed command of the new center while continuing his current duties with Navy Supply Corps School.
The center will initially be manned with approximately 70 new billets, both military and civilian. This is new business for Athens and is recognition of its reputation as a center of excellence in Navy education and training.
