Advanced Officers' Classes

  • Imperial Period

The Advanced Officers' Classes (Вышие офицерские классы) of the Russian Navy were established in 1827 under the direction of the famous admiral and seafarer Ivan Fedorovich Kruzenshtern. At this stage of their existence they were connected to the Naval Cadet Corps. In 1862 the Officers' Class was transformed into the Academic Course of Maritime Sciences having three departments: hydrographic, shipbuilding, and mechanical. The graduates of the course provided the navy with scientific officers for the fleets and instructors for the Naval Cadet Corps. On 28 January 1877, the 50th anniversary of their establishment, the Maritime Academy opened - later transformed into the Naval Academy. With time other officers classes were established to provide the fleet with specialists, in 1874 the Mine Officers' Class was started in Kronshtadt, and in 1878 the Artillery Officers' Class. Subsequently established were Submarine and Navigation Officers' Classes. Beginning in 1909 the Officers' Classes included all of the navy's classed specialists.

  • Soviet Period

After October 1917 the various Officers' Classes were combined into a single institution - the Navy Combined Special Officers' Classes. Initially there were five specialties: artillery, mines, submarine, navigation, and electrical equipment. In 1920 two new classes, mechanical and shipbuilding, were added. On 28 September 1920 the classes were classified as a higher special naval educational institution. In the Fall 1925 the institution was renamed Special Courses for Improving Fleet Commanders and later as Special Courses for the Navy Command Staff. In 1938 the Courses received their own building (Bldg 80 Malookhtenskiy Prospekt, St. Petersburg) and they remain there today. In 1939 they were again renamed - Advanced Special Courses for the Command Staff of the Workers' & Peasants Navy. During the 900-day siege of Leningrad the Courses were moved and continued to function in Astrakhan and Samarkand. In 1946 the Courses transitioned to a peacetime work regime and received the name they carry today - Navy Advanced Special Officers' Classes(Вышие спецальные офицерские классы ВМФ).

  • Current

Today the Classes are the only institution of their type for retraining and advancing qualifications. 40 different specialties are covered encompassing officers of the entire tactical level of the navy. The basic aspect of training is that it covers what is directly and practically required now and in the immediate future by the fleet.

  • Historical accomplishment

From 1918 to the present the Advanced Special Officers' Classes have prepared more than 19,000 commanding officers and 20,000 flag specialists. On 28 January 2007 the Classes marked their 180th anniversary and continue to advance officers' qualifications for the fleet.[2]
