Ernesto Durán González, commander of the Colombian National Navy, participate in the Naval Small Craft Instruction and Technical Training School's 2016 Distinguished Alumni Award ceremony at USSOCOM headquarters at the MacDill Air Force Base.
NAVSCIATTS established the Distinguished Alumni program in 2013 in conjunction with the international training center’s 50th anniversary. The program recognizes specific accomplishments of NAVSCIATTS graduates who achieve strategic military or law enforcement agency positions within their countries that influence the network of international relationships that have proven beneficial in countering global issues such as extremism, piracy, drug trafficking and other criminal activities.
Since 1963, more than 11,500 students from 110 partner nations have graduated from NAVSCIATTS, which specializes in mobile and in-resident training across the tactical, operational and strategic spectrums. The Security Cooperation schoolhouse operates under USSOCOM in support of the Foreign Security Assistance and Geographic Combatant Commands’ Theater Security Cooperation priorities.
