The Runway is a professional development portal focused on assisting members with their Professional Military Education (PME)* by providing daily links to relevant and up-to-date articles. The site is designed to be accessible and to encourage members to engage in self-directed learning.
Runway provides RAAF members—and others—with articles that have been carefully sourced and curated across a range of ten topics: Air & Space Power, Leadership, Military Management, Communication & Cognition, Cyber, Strategic Influences, Technology, Innovation, Wellbeing and Military History.
The Runway supports Program Wirraway, the Air Force’s professional military education (PME) program. The Program Wirraway ‘core’ pathway comprises four levels of learning, each containing the broad themes of air power, communications, military management and leadership, which are also represented in the key topics on The Runway. See Taking education to new heights.
The Runway is designed to challenge your thinking and push you to take responsibility for your continual development and professional growth.
Now, more than ever, we are aware of the changing needs of our organisation. The pace of change is faster now than before—and this is the new normal within which Air Force members must think, innovate, lead, manage and operate.
