Some 40 of the graduates were conferred in absentia as they are currently serving overseas in Golan Heights, Lebanon and with the EU Battle Group training exercise in Sweden. The collaborative partnership allows members of the Defence Forces to achieve formal education qualifications through career advancement training and validates the training and learning acquired throughout their military careers.
