The Officer Selection in the Belgian Armed Forces

Abstract

In this paper we will discuss the Belgian Armed Forces Officer Selection System (BAF). First of all we will put the Belgian Armed Forces Selection System in perspective by giving some basic information concerning the levels of selection and the numbers of candidates tested. We will give a brief description of the basic selection procedure and of the different possibilities to become an officer. Furthermore the general purpose of the selection system is discussed. Then we will go trough the officer selection profile that the Armed Forces are looking for. Briefly there is an overview of the non-psychological techniques and we will look in more detail to the psychological selection procedures. At the end, some closing observations are given.
