Air Force Offers Culture Course

Week of March 08, 2010

The Air Force Culture and Language Center staff developed an online, culture-general course through Advanced Distributed Learning System. The Tier 2A Culture-General Course is required for Airmen in the air and space expeditionary force vulnerability period. The new module consists of eight lessons, all of which include learning and behavioral objectives. The module provides Airmen the tools necessary to build trust and effectively interact with international cultures. Airmen examine topics such as self identity, culture shock management, methods in anticipating human behavior, high context versus low context communication and conflict resolution.
