The company will train the region’s armed forces and other agencies for a broad spectrum of operationally relevant scenarios using its Joint Operations Command and Staff Training System (JOCASTS).
NSC managing director Jeremy Spurr said the company has first-hand experience of Kuwait’s determination to develop military leaders of the future.
"Through our continued support of the excellent directing staff at the Mubarak Al Abdullah Joint Command and Staff College, NSC is focused on providing world-class training that will preserve this operational advantage and ultimately enhance the national security of the state of Kuwait," Spurr said.
Having supported training programmes at the facility since being established by the British military mission in 1996, NSC will enable Kuwait’s military to simulate the defence of its borders and critical national infrastructure.
