The Baltic Defence College (BALTDEFCOL) has continually sought to be at the forefront of professional military education to ensure its graduates are well prepared to meet the challenges they will face throughout their career in war and peace.
Within a year of regaining their independence, the Defence Ministers of the three Baltic States agreed to cooperate in officer education. This cooperation was formalised in 1998 with the signing of an agreement establishing the Baltic Defence College in Tartu, Estonia – with English as its working language.
The Baltic Defence College serves as a centre of strategic and operational research and provides professional military education to intermediate and senior – level officers and government officials from the founding states, other member states of the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation countries, as well as other European countries.
