This version of the story includes corrected information that Cyber Command has made it a goal, not a mandate, that the Persistent Cyber Training Environment becomes the training platform for the cyber mission force. WASHINGTON The Air Force school to prepare airmen to become high-end cyber defenders will introduce an online training tool in its upcoming curriculum. Designed as the premier training tool for the Department of Defense cyber force, the Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE) allows U.S. Cyber Command’s warriors to log on from anywhere in the world for individual or group training and mission rehearsals. The goal for PCTE is that it will be the training platform for the cyber mission force in the future.
