NTSA Simulation Gala

Description

One Community. One Mission. One Evening.

The NTSA Simulation Gala, presented by the National Training and Simulation Association (NTSA), brings together the training and simulation community for a celebratory evening at Fort Leavenworth—the historic home of leadership, doctrine, and strategic thought. This event celebrates the people, teams, and partnerships advancing readiness through modeling, simulation, and training. From government and industry leaders to innovators and rising talent, the Gala honors those whose work ensures our forces are prepared to meet today’s complex operational challenges and tomorrow’s evolving threats.

The Gala reflects the strength of collaboration across service, sectors, and disciplines. Guests will enjoy an evening of recognition, connection, and reflection in a setting that blends Fort Leavenworth’s rich legacy with the forward momentum of modern training technologies, data-driven readiness, and workforce development.

Why Fort Leavenworth

As the home of the nation’s premier professional military education institutions, Fort Leavenworth has shaped generations of leaders and remains central to how the joint force thinks, plans, and prepares for complex conflict. Hosting the Gala at Fort Leavenworth underscores the essential connection between leader development and modern training technologies. It is a place where doctrine meets innovation—where modeling and simulation directly support decision-making, readiness, and the future fight.  By convening the community at Fort Leavenworth, NTSA honors the legacy of military education while spotlighting the forward-looking tools, partnerships, and people advancing training as a strategic advantage for national security.
