Simulation Missions

A key way you'll increase your skills and gain experience is by flying missions in the simulator.

A range of mission scenarios are available covering tactical, exploration or diplomatic themes. Sceanrios are self-contained examples of what might can be expected during Endeavour's mission , such as encountering alien vessels, discovering ancient outposts or battling for control of a star system. New scenarios are released regularly.

Choose a scenario that interests you, get your crew together and book time in the simulator using the online reservation tool.

Training and Development

Career development is supported by training and development opportunities for all career tracks.

The key objective of training is to become rated (qualified to operate) on a system. Each system has a training program associated with it. When the program is completed successfully, a rating for that system is awarded.

Crew specialists will normally get rated on one or two related systems with their training focussed on increasing their level of qualification on that system.

An increase in qualification level opens up more complex roles on missions.

Officers typically need to be rated on more ship systems than a crew specialist, but only at a basic level of qualification. An officer’s training is instead focussed on gaining experience (hours on watch) across different leadership positions.
