Are you a LT or a Major? The Naval War College offers JPME Phase 1 via distance education. You can pursue one of two options:
- If you have good internet access, sign up for the web-enabled class here:

- If you are at a remote location, or deploy a lot, go with the CD-enabled course:

I did the CD course, and it was great. The NWC was very flexible with my schedule, and I deployed twice for three months each time. All of the readings came in on both a DVD and printed, which if you work in a SCIF makes it easy to study at work, which I would do while my programs were compiling. The NWC also takes care of getting the class into your record, so you'll get credit quickly for your work.
