Base Education Office

The Education Center offers professional guidance to enhance individual and mission readiness, educate and equip Airmen of available AF education programs and assist in preparing the world’s elite fighting force through education. The Air Force is a full-time job, but this doesn’t mean airmen should give up on their education and dreams. In fact, this is more of a reason to continue your education. While most will carry the load of student loans, airmen have a wide variety of options that can allow them to attend college for next to nothing. Even deployments don’t have to stop you from getting your education. Numerous schools have online classes and many deployment locations are offering education centers to help students. Don’t let your excuses get in the way of your dreams; schedule an appointment with our Education Advisors today.

To schedule an appointment, call our office at 456-2615 or submit your request to educationservices@us.af.mil with your full name, last 4 of SSAN and the reason for your appointment (i.e. changing schools, degrees, CCAF, TA briefing, etc.)
