During the courses the instructors of the MNCG illustrated the principle of the NATO CIMIC Doctrine, the spectrum of the CIMIC activities in support to a NATO operation and the main NATO Techniques, Tactics and Procedures (TTPs) addressing the liaison, the assessment of the civil environment, the CIMIC Centre and projects.

The support to the seminars by the MNCG MTT is a recurrent activity started on 2015, which is aimed to increase the interoperability among the MNCG and affiliated CIMIC units belonging to the participating Nations.
