Abstract
The modern military requires professionals in its ranks. One of the many dimensions of professionalization is education and training aimed at building human capital. Modern equipment or specialized training devices are not sufficient for education to be effective; innovative teaching methods are also needed. Constantly growing needs in the field of education and professional development are determinants in the search for modern education forms, methods and tools adaptable to the military environment. As part of the education and professional development process, the military education units of the General Command of the Armed Forces concentrate their main efforts on the course training of soldiers and staff of the Ministry of National Defense, training of candidates for non-commissioned officers and specialized training of candidates for professional privates. As an organization, the Armed Forces must operate regardless of the emerging threats. Therefore, they must perform tasks in the most difficult and unpredictable circumstances. Paradoxically, the pandemic proved to be a catalyst for military education units to raise the level of teaching and enrich the ways of transmitting knowledge, including the popularization of distance learning. This paper discusses the distance learning model in operation at the Polish Armed Forces. The process of military professionals training using remote learning methods and techniques is characterized. Conclusions and experiences concerning the implementation of remote learning in the pandemic counteracting conditions are presented. The article also indicates the desired directions of transformation in the area of remote learning applied in the Polish Armed Forces.
