Training Office Report #14
Admiral Keldorn Reporting – 13th June 2003

Huzzah! A full contingent of IWATS Professor is once more a reality – and a most pleasant one at that. My commendations go out to all the current Professors for their exemplary (and timely) service; I am pleased to say that on several occasions this week there have been no submissions pending grading – previously a rare occurrence that now I expect to be a regular.

The Training Office (under the sponsorship of the Imperial University) is going to launch a series of IRC (Internet Relay Chat – http://www.mirc.com and so on.) colloquia – individual events that serve to educate and discuss matters of importance to our role as members of the Emperor’s Hammer and the internet community. Think of these events as ‘online conferences’ whereby anyone may attend and, under the direction of at least one applicable professional, ask questions and discuss topics of relevance to the subject at hand. I have many ideas for these events but am eager to get a diverse variety, hence I am calling for proposals for these events to focus upon (such topics can span Star Wars canon to matters of real-life relevance; literature, popular culture, music – the possibilities are essentially endless). I hope to be able to invite professionals from the more distinct topics to come and talk to us about their field – therefore, these events should prove to be both hugely entertaining and pedagogically valid… In other words; a good thing. Ideas should be sent to me at to@emperorshammer.org.

This time of year is a terribly daunting one for many members of the Emperor’s Hammer due to the dreaded exams. I am not so far-gone that I have forgotten what these are like, and to that end I would like to wish a hearty good-luck to those of you that are in the midst of these trials – and to those that have now completed them, enjoy the calm before the returning storm, and I do hope they went well.

The Training Office is now accepting Course proposals. With stability now re-established within IWATS, and a full compliment of IWATS Staff now a reality, I have decided to re-open the Office to proposals of new Courses to be included in the IWATS repertoire. There are a few restrictions upon proposals; I am open to many diverse and innovative ideas, and would like to encourage the proposal of specifically non-programming Courses at this time. 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.
