To ensure the training of all Expeditionary Civilians is consistent, standardized and effective, the Office of the Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness established a training facility in Camp Atterbury, Indiana and assigned the oversight and management of this facility to the Army.  Camp Atterbury offers facilities that support standard classroom training, as well as multi domain capabilities in the field.

The AECW team manages the facility, conducts training and coordinates transportation of all trainees throughout all geographic COCOM areas of responsibility.  At Camp Atterbury we conduct pre-deployment training, mobilization and demobilization of Expeditionary Civilians.  Medical requirements established by the COCOMs are validate prior to movement to Camp Atterbury.  Camp Atterbury has a Central Issue Facility responsible for issue of gear and equipment required by the COCOMs, as well as training the Deployers in the proper utilization of the equipment.
