The University of Defence (UD) provides comprehensive education and training of students to get knowledge and skills which enable graduates to manage activities in the area of management and leadership. Formerly, the UD students received military and leadership skills especially within the military training outside the UD in basic training, in the Career course or the Specialized officer course at the Training Command - Military Academy (TC-MA) in Vyškov. Currently, the UD has included the Officer course into its own teaching curriculum, and thus bears a full responsibility for comprehensive preparedness of the UD graduates for their assignment to systemized positions in the Army of the Czech Republic (ACR).
