Open Days for young people interested in enrolling in military schools
A traditional campaign has begun in which military schools enable interested elementary and high school students who are wondering how to enrol in military schools and become part of the brave Serbian Armed Forces, to visit them and get answers to all their questions.

Major Željko Jokić, professor at the Army weapons and military equipment Department explains why this campaign is important.
- Interested applicants can get acquainted with the military schools’ curricula, extracurricular activities, accommodation and sports facilities directly and on the spot. They can talk to the teachers and learn details about study programs and the curriculum. They will be allowed to enter the cadets' rooms and see where the cadets live and work. They will also be able to go into the classrooms where classes are held and check the quality of the classroom equipment - Major Jokić points out.

- In addition to the curriculum content, the Military Academy offers plenty of extracurricular activities, such as sports, drama, music, literary and oratory clubs. A modern pistol shooting range was opened at the Military Academy two years ago. In addition to the shooting range, there is also a training simulator, which is unique in the Balkans. When they graduate from the Military Academy, the cadets become lieutenants and get permanent employment in the Serbian Armed Forces, an opportunit ywhich no other faculty in the country provides. Also, after graduating from the Military Academy, lieutenants have the opportunity to continue their education. There are two courses of training. One implies the Basic Command and Staff Course, Command and Staff Course and General Staff Course, and the other implies academic training through master's and doctoral studies - Major Jokić points out.
Luka Ćelić from Šabac was one of the first young people to come today to inquire about the Military Academy enrolment conditions.
- I found enrolment details on the website. I saw a lot of photos that I liked. I came to see what it is like here, what the living and working conditions are like, to see some types of weapons and sports halls - said Ćelić.

- I have been preparing since last year. I read on the website that you need to prepare for a math and a PE test, so I have been preparing for those and I hope I will be successful - says Luka Ćelić.
In the 2020-2021 academic year, the Military Academy will admit 210 cadets in seven study programs, the Military Medical Academy's Medical Faculty will admit 40 cadets into the youngest class of integrated academic medical studies, the Military Grammar School will enrol 80 students in the first year and five students in the second and third years respectively, and the"1300 Corporals" Secondary Vocational Military School will enrol 60 students in five areas of study.
