Job description
Officer Candidate School (OCS) is the U.S. Army’s main training academy for prospective Army Officers.

Officers do not have easy jobs. The men and women you lead will count on you to make the right decisions when the going gets tough. Officer Candidate School is designed to give you a framework for your role as a unit commander. You will learn tactics training, how to deal with mental and emotional stress, and how to give orders.

The benefits of becoming an Officer rival those from the very best jobs in the civilian world. But your experience as an Officer will also signify to others that you have the fortitude to lead in any situation, no matter the environment, no matter the stakes.
