Training Office Report #16
Admiral Keldorn Cochrane Reporting – 7th July 2003
http://www.emperorshammer.ca/

Apologies for the rather odd timing of this Report, as I informed the Grand Admiral, I have been in London the last few days in various conferences. Leading on from this, I shall be attending a two-day seminar in Scotland on Monday 19th and have decided to work a small vacation into this excursion; hence, I shall be on a leave of absence from Saturday 12th July to Saturday 19th July 2003.

The Training Office’s IRC colloquia project will begin shortly after I return from the aforementioned leave. As I mentioned when I first announced these online “conferences”, they aim first and foremost to educate members of the Emperor’s Hammer and as such are not limited to the fictional constraints of Star Wars canon. Several of the planned colloquia are (SW donates primarily Star Wars-based; RL donates those with a ‘Real Life’ application):

  • Modern Leadership Techniques (RL/SW).
  • Democracy or Hypocrisy: An examination of contemporary Politics (RL).
  • A Brief Introduction to Shakespeare (RL).
  • The Condensed History of the Galaxy (SW).

The “Apostasy” competition shall begin shortly after I return from leave, allowing the SubGroup Commanders to prepare their elements while I am away, ready for a prompt start.

Major Devin Taralis has gone missing, and hence I am forced to open the position of Training Office Assistant to applications once again. The position varies in its duties, and the workload can lull and peak based upon the projects within the Office. Details can be found below.

Major Praetorian has tendered his resignation from active duty to pursue his training in the military; best wishes to him. This leaves the position of Graphics (GFX) Professor open to applications. Details can be found below.

My congratulations are extended to the Tactical Officer on his well-overdue promotion to the rank of Fleet Admiral.

Lieutenant Orrimaarko Reeft is on a short leave of absence until 13th July 2003, but Course grading should remain unhindered.

The Shadow Academy appears to be progressing well, but the processing of new Apprentice’s still cannot be completed. Or if it has, I do not have the details/access to perform the task. Sith Warrior Kyle Katarn has informed me that he no longer wishes to serve as the Pontiff of the Sith Apprentice and Sith Doctrine, and hence these positions are now open to applications to all members of the Dark Brotherhood. Details can be found below.

The Training Office is now accepting Course proposals. I am open to many diverse and innovative ideas, these can range from matters of real-life relevance to those of Star Wars canon (and indeed, our own non-canon). The Courses under consideration so far are:

  • Cascading Style Sheets.
  • Sound Processing/Editing.
  • General Multiplayer.
  • Star Wars Galaxies.
  • Advanced TIE Mission Design (TM/2).
  • Advanced TIE Tactics (TT/2).
  • Networking Basics.
  • Tactical Staff.

  • Holding at least the rank of Commander (or equivalent).
