The military commissioning schools are educational institutions conducting career commissioned officer training programmes. Education acquired at such schools is higher military education (level 6 according to International Standard Classification of Education). These programmes are named specialitet (Russian: специалитет) and take 5 years. Graduates of commissioning schools are assigned the military rank of lieutenant.
The commissioning schools are the first (tactical) level of officer training. Their graduates are appointed as platoon/company commanders and at equivalent positions. After several years of active duty service they can entry military academy for further education.
History
The Russian military education system, inherited from the Soviet Union, trains officer-specialists in narrowly-defined military occupational specialties. Modern Russian military educational institutions conducting commissioning programmes may have different names (academy, institute, higher school), it stems from tradition and has no effect on the content of aforementioned programmes.
At the moment, some commissioning schools also conduct warrant officer programmes.
