This semester of the Advanced Course concentrates on leadership, management, and ethics and begins the final transition from cadet to lieutenant. The course focuses cadets, early in the year, on attaining knowledge and proficiency in several critical areas they will need to operate effectively as Army officers. These areas include coordinating activities with staffs, counseling theory and practice within the "Army context", training management, andethics. The introduction of these subjects early in the MS IV year has the added benefit of preparing cadets to lead the cadet battalion throughout the remainder of the year. While the proficiency attained in each of these areas will initially be at the apprentice level, cadets will continue to sharpen these skills as they perform their roles as cadet officers in the battalion and after commissioning. At the end of this semester, cadets should posses the fundamental skills, attributes and abilities to operate as competent leaders in the cadet battalion and confidently communicate to subordinate cadets their preparedness to shoulder the responsibilities entrusted to them. This course additionally includes a Leadership Lab which will reinforce the lessons learned in the classroom. Prerequisite: MIL 302. 3 credits at Providence College (these credits will transfer to applicable JWU courses).

The final semester of the Advanced Course focuses on completing the transition from cadet to lieutenant. As a follow-on to the ethics instruction in MIL 401, the course starts with a foundation in the legal aspects of decision making and leadership. The next module reinforces previous instruction on the organization of the Army and introduces how we organize for operations from the tactical to strategic level. This is followed by instruction on administrative and logistical management that will focus on the fundamentals of soldier and unit-level support. The final module that introduces new information focuses on the often confusing process of changing duty stations and reporting to a new unit. At the core of this semester is the Advanced Course's Capstone Exercise. This 12-lesson exercise will directly reinforce all modules from this semester and will also incorporate and reinforce many learning objectives from modules throughout the entire curriculum. The Capstone Exercise will require the cadets, both individually and collectively, to apply their knowledge to solve problems and confront situations commonly faced by junior officers. Upon completion of this semester, the cadets will be prepared to shoulder the responsibility of being a commissioned officer in the United States Army. This course additionally includes a Leadership Lab which will reinforce the lessons learned in the classroom. Prerequisite: MIL 401. 3 credits at Providence College (these credits will transfer to applicable JWU courses).
