Air Force Space Command created the National Security Space Institute (NSSI) in 2004 to provide tailored education and training to Air Force space professionals and the broader National Security Space community. In 2009, the NSSI transferred to The Air University and aligned under the Eaker Center for Professional Development, where it continues to offer world class professional continuing education to those in military space career fields. Since 2012, the NSSI has been housed in a purposefully constructed learning facility on Peterson AFB, The Moorman Space Education and Training Center (SETC), named after General (Ret) Thomas S. Moorman.
