Overview of the Fleet Command Course ("FCC")

The Fleet Command Course is a program of learning designed to encourage and support new and emerging Fleet Commanders within Eve University under the Cross Campus Initiative. The course has three primary goals:

“

1) Provide aspiring FC's a structured and goal oriented plan to improve/learn how to effectively lead fleets. 2) Provide the Uni with consistent fleet activities in the three major timezones. 3) Grow and Develop FC's to provide EVE Online itself, with competent content creators.

”

What Does the FCC Offer?

Structured Learning Plan

The FCC Ranks system provides a rank progression linked to fleets flown, both in terms of number of fleets, and type of doctrines flown. The plan is designed to produce well rounded FCs with extensive experience across various doctrines, areas of space, and ship size, who are comfortable leading fleets of all shapes and sizes against your opponents

Completion of the full training plan, and attainment of the "Commander" Rank is rewarded with a shiny Fleet Commander Medal to impress all your friends

Fleet Feedback

While all FCs are required to write an After Action Report (AAR) on the Uni forums explaining what they learned, FCC members also get access to an anonymous feedback form for their fleet participants. Feedback is consolidated and sent out within a few days of the fleet, providing an additional learning source for our FCs

E-Uni Fleet Commander Community

The FCC community is built up of people throughout the Uni, from active FCs, to semi-retired experienced players, and new aspiring FCs without a fleet to their name. Together we provide advice and guidance on all aspects of Fleet Command

• Dedicated FCC Slack for out of game discussion of all aspects of FC'ing
• The FCC has a dedicated forum on the EVE Uni Forums
• The FCC Mailing List also distributes useful information, and updates on a regular basis

The FCC Mentor Scheme

The FCC Mentor Scheme is comprised of volunteers from our most experienced FCs across all timezones, who have generously agreed to act as Mentors for any junior FC new to the course who wishes for some additional help and guidance. The whole of the FCC community remains there as a means of support for everyone, however if you request it, we will also provide a 1:1 relationship with a senior FC who can be your first port of call for your questions, and who will make every attempt to attend your fleets and act as your Second in Command

The FCC Doctrine Library

The FCC Doctrine Library is a archive of consolidated information about commonly flown doctrines for any new FC looking at doctrine ideas. The pages to include not only to the fits themselves, but also tactics and suggestions on how to fly them, as well as providing an easily linked source for the doctrine when making Fleet announcements/forum posts.

These are not official doctrines, and members do not have to follow them, but they are for suggestion and inspiration purposes only, and to help with ideas to fulfill the FCC doctrine requirements

Other benefits and Initiatives

The FCC is continually evolving, and new initiatives and projects are always under consideration or implementation. Previous such examples have been:

• Working to design official FCC Battlecruiser doctrines
• Mapping of our regular roaming locations and producing communal tactical bookmarking packs for FCC members
