Electromagnetic Environmental Effects (E3) and Spectrum Supportability (SS) Awareness Training
E3/SS Awarness Training is fundamental to preventing, and/or correcting, EMI problems that may arise in the field during a mission. In the past, billions of dollars could have been saved if personnel involved in the acquisition process or operational use of military systems and equipment were better trained to recognize and avoid EMI.
The Defense Spectrum Organization (DSO) is excited to roll out a rotating Virtual Schedule of the entire course catalog (as shown below). These courses are intended for the US DoD acquisition and systems engineering community to better understand how to ensure that all systems are designed to be electromagnetically compatible and spectrum supportable throughout their life cycle.
An MS Teams link to the course and the course materials (a PDF file), including a course survey, will be provided
via email a few days before the course. A Certificate will be provided upon completion of the course. Note: For the best experience, you should use the MS Teams desktop application.
**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
These Free Virtual courses will be available on the
noted dates through Microsoft (MS) Teams and are available by registering using the following link:

SPECTRUM/E3 COURSE TRAILERS
At this time, only CLE047: Grounding, Bonding, and Shielding is online and available. (Technical Requirements)
CLE 047: Grounding, Bonding and Shielding -
iCatalog - CLE047
This module is relatively technical and provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the importance of a properly grounded, bonded, and shielded system for the minimization of Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Students become acquainted with specialized terminology, grounding schematics, bonding practices and types, and the basic rules for the implementation of shields to control radiated EMI. Students will be equipped with a baseline knowledge that will prepare them for real-time experience in the field.
-
All exams in this course must be passed with a minimum score of 80%. You will have two opportunities to retake an exam in its entirety - after a 3rd failure, you will automatically be restarted in the course.
-
There is no time limit for completing this course.
-
Prerequisites - None
Upon completion of this module, you will receive 3 Continuous Learning Points (CLP).
