Since September 14, 1981, the Senior Enlisted Academy has been the pinnacle of enlisted professional military education in the Navy. Through a challenging educational experience, we promise to improve our students' already superior management and leadership abilities. The SEA provides a variety of leadership models and encourages students to solve problems in a systematic manner. The students also increase their regional and cultural awareness as well as their understanding of the roles and missions of our sister services and coalition partners, which will further prepare them for operations in an ever-increasing joint environment. Upon graduation, our students are ready to assume duties in the most demanding senior enlisted billets. They will have the opportunity to influence hundreds, if not thousands of military and civilian personnel. As Staff or Faculty members, we will provide them the best leadership education the Navy can offer. That is my promise!
It is indeed a pleasure to welcome you to the United States Navy Senior Enlisted Academy's web site. In these pages, we explain our mission and current educational program. Additionally, we provide a staff welcome aboard package and sponsor information. Your feedback is not only welcome, but also encouraged.
