Albania is the first State Partnership Program country to send its officer candidates to the United States to attend an Officer Candidate School (OCS) program. The 12-week New Jersey Army National Guard OCS program is modelled after the active-duty program at Fort Benning, Ga., and includes classroom instruction, physical and leadership training.
