NMIOTC in NATO Structure

Although the Centre operates outside the NATO Command Structure (NCS), it is affiliated with Allied Command Transformation (ACT) similar to the other NETFS.
NMIOTC cooperates closely with SACEUR’s subordinate Commands.
Apart from the Command Group, coordinated by the Director of Staff Operations, three (3) major directorates – Education and Training (E&T), Training Support (TS) and Support (S) comprise the organizational structure of the Centre. The Director of Training Support (DIR TS) is appointed by Italian Navy.
