This course is designed for Air Force logisticians involved in any phase of weapon system sustainment. This course is highly conceptual and will cover the subject from an enterprise perspective, starting with understanding weapon systems as delivery mechanisms for military capabilities and continuing through Enterprise Life Cycle Management, Enterprise Sustainment, and Enterprise Maintenance. A broader understanding of these topics will help Air Force logistics readiness and aircraft maintenance officers develop as professional logisticians.

In this course, we discuss the structure, inputs, and processes of Air Force depot maintenance organizations as well as their operational strategies. A broader understanding of these topics will help Air Force logisticians operate in positions assigned to or supporting depot organizations.

This course is designed to provide an overview and awareness of Air Force Acquisition and Sustainment subjects. It provides students with the latest on the Air Force Materiel management, Grand Strategies, the Integrated Defense Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics Life Cycle Management System, informing Air Force capabilities through Acquisition Intelligence, Development planning, Test and Evaluation, and Human Systems Integration. The course discusses the current acquisition and logistics environment, Foreign Military Sales, Operational Imperatives, Supply Chain Risk Management, and the 12 Integrated Product Support Elements, among other relevant topics. Learn how AFMC initiatives ultimately support for the warfighter!

This course is an outstanding opportunity to learn or refresh on issues and initiatives impacting experienced acquisition and support professionals. Topics vary from class to class, in part to reflect the most recent changes, but also to accommodate the schedules of expert guest speakers. The course enables students to listen to and engage with the experts, there is generally a different speaker or facilitator for each topic presented. The course is a wonderful opportunity for students to learn from one another as they gather together from different functions, jobs, bases, and backgrounds to share knowledge and experience during roundtable discussions. Students thus benefit from exposure to the wide range of current topics in the acquisition and support arenas, helping to assess the impacts to their roles and responsibilities.

The LG Academy - Foundational Logistics Immersion, Growth, & Hands- on Training (FLIGHT) provides a standardized development track and foundational competency baseline to newly hired Life Cycle Logisticians (LCL). Airmen and Guardians will explore the Defense Acquisition System (DAS) through the lens of an LCL and understand their roles and deliverables within an Integrated Product Team (IPT) throughout a products lifecycle. The LG Academy is an Air Force wide course, open to all Logisticians and covers topics from each of AFMC’s centers. By the end of the workshop, participants will be conversant with key Acquisition terminology and have applied that knowledge to real world scenarios they may encounter within various logistics roles.

WKLCL110 is intended to introduce the principles and practices associated with Department of the Air Force Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM). The purpose of the workshop is to help develop a broader and more comprehensive understanding of how Air Force supply chains may be at risk, and to increase awareness of the emerging capabilities available to mitigate such risks. Areas of focus include supply chain basics, factors influencing supply chain risk, SCRM definition and relationship to other risk methodologies, the SCRM assessment process, and supply chain risks and mitigation tools & techniques.
