The AFIT, School of Systems & Logistics (LS) is a Professional Continuing Education (PCE) school providing multi modal continuing education courses. The AF education process is made up of a collection of existing legacy systems and newer online systems. The newer online systems neither replace nor interface seamlessly with the older legacy systems. As a result there are courses tied to specific systems and the application for those courses are naturally governed by the processes tied to that system. The School of Systems and Logistics has no control over the online or the legacy systems or their associated “application” procedures.

HOW TO APPLY

We have made this as seamless as possible for the student by providing all the instructions necessary to the student on each Course listing page. Links are provided on each page for the How to apply for a Course Steps 1 and 2. Please read all of these instructions carefully before clicking the orange Apply Now! button.
