Before your Colonel recommends you for the Officer Academy, you must meet the following requirements:

  • You need to have been in the CA for at least 2 months.

  • You need to have been in your regiment for at least 2 weeks.

  • You need to have an account on the website (www.nixpca.com)

The Officer Academy works by a Colonel recommending one of their Master Sergeants to be invited into the academy. During the Master Sergeant’s time within the academy, they will understanding the following subjects:

Stage I: Administration, how to design and create organized procedures.

Stage II: Instructing, how to effectively lead and train your men.

Each stage will be taught directly by aan Instructor or HQ member to review your capabilities to become an officer. Stage I will act as an introductory course that will outline points you need to be aware of for the other stages. The other stagesStages will end with a test referred to as an “examination” that you must pass to proceed.

Upon finishing the last of their stages, an academy enlistment will have a document administered to them holding 3 questions, this will be their Final Exam. Also, upon submitting the document, the enlistment will be evaluated and given a score based on quality, competence, and activity. Each question will be graded out of 25 points, being the same as the evaluation. 

A score of 90-100 is passing.

A score of 80-89 will have you retake the Final Test.

A score of 70-79 will have you restart from Stage Two.

A score of 60-69 will have you restart from Stage One.

A score of <60 will result in a kick from the OA and a one week blacklist for you to prepare.

If you pass the Officer Academy, The Director of OA will commission you. If you fail more than twice, you must wait 2 weeks before retaking it if your CO still wants you as an officer.
