For the Theresan Military Academy, the international cooperation plays an important role. According to the Common Security and Defence Policy of the European Union, all the programmes should pave the way for mutual European understanding and thus, develop security to a maximum within the military field.
The basic officer education focuses onto the activities of the “European Initiative for the exchange of young officers inspired by Erasmus”. In accordance with a decision of the EU Ministers of Defence, all activities of this programme should harmonise the European basic officer education and increase interoperability.
The advanced officer training is based on bilateral activities, mainly with EU Member States. The exchange programmes focus on national and international staff training on Battalion and Brigade levels; main target audience are ranks from 1st Lieutenant to Major.
