Our operator training course (OTC) is a 9-month advanced course that trains our operators to be warfighters at the highest levels. OTC is a course where if you let the stress and schedule control your thoughts and actions, you will struggle to find success. Therefore, we try to prime the operators for success during a week-long course dubbed "Peak Performance", where we help the operators learn how to control the controllables and let go of worrying about the things they don't control
Peak Performance is also a way we try to build a bridge from the operators over to our Human Performance staff so they understand how to utilize the experts during training (and beyond) to increase their performance.
This podcast is a recording of a panel discussion we had on the first day of Peak Performance. The four panel members are operators who just graduated from OTC a few months ago. They share their experiences, challenges, and tips on how to navigate OTC more successfully. Hopefully, you can take some relatable and actionable tips from this discussion as well.

This assignment should be on every AFSPECWAR operator's goal sheet. That doesn't mean we will be a good fit for you or that you will be a good fit for us, but you will never know until you apply.
