Global Center for Security Cooperation

logoThe Global Center supports and coordinates the activities of the five Regional Centers and members of the Global Center consortium. The GCSC is a functional element of the Defense Security Cooperation Agency to enhance OSD policy dissemination and to increase awareness of DoD international partner education and training resources.

The GCSC maintains a common operating picture for the Regional Centers and consortium members by providing a consolidated events calendar, student management system, curriculum reviews, reporting functions, and databases of subject matter experts and lessons learned & best practices. All of these functions are available to supported activities through a password-protected internet site, using the Regional International Outreach (RIO) system.  All of these functions provide the consortium members, and RCSSs and their Combatant Commands added capacity and one-stop shopping for educational programs and resources.
