Candidate Training Regiment

If a being is lucky enough to be chosen as a candidate for the Black Cobras he must prove that he has the skills needed to succeed. Before being accepted, potential candidates are remotely observed and their progress and skills noted. Their background is checked, fitness reports are viewed, and their necessary combat skills are tested. Once accepted, candidates undergo a rigorous thirteen week training schedule. In those thirteen weeks they are taught everything from advanced weapons handling to medical/first aid skills. Each subject is taught for one week, and at the end of the week a test is given. The student then moves on to the next subject.

Week 1: Blaster skills
Week 2: First Aid Skills (Classroom)
Week 3: Firearms skills
Week 4: Group/Squad Tactics
Week 5: CQB: Empty Hand
Week 6: CQB: Edged Weapons
Week 7: Vehicle Ops: Repulsorlift Vehicles
Week 8: Vehicle Ops: Ground Vehicles
Week 9: Vehicle Ops: Swoop Vehicles
Week 10: Basic Demolitions
Week 11: Basic Blaster & Firearms Repair
Week 12: Grenades & Missile Weapons
Week 13: Stealth Movement

After the thirteenth week, the candidate is given a comprehensive test. Test results are not given out. The candidate goes through the training schedule again, weekly test results are expected to be higher. After the second run through, the candidate is given another test. If the candidate passed both tests he graduates. If either test was failed, or if any of the individual weekly tests show discouraging results, the student goes through the regiment again, skipping over the areas he passed, and training only in the area(s) he failed. After the third go through the student is given the third test. Failure results in dismissal, passing graduates.
