The Imperium training is a requirement for holding any officer position in DI.
Throughout your Imperium Cohort Month you will need to study our Staff Training Handbook and pass an exam with questions based on the Handbook's material and the contents of the Wiki.
This is to ensure that officers in Damage Inc have a basic understanding of the essential systems the run in DI and how to carry out their duties correctly.
Some of the things you will learn about are our Strike System, Staff's Code, Chain of Command, how to navigate the GMR and the responsibilities of our Orders.
Imperium Cohorts consist of people working towards passing the Imperium Staff training and becoming an Officer in Damage Inc. Anyone can enroll, even if they are currently not interested in any Staff position. Anyone who has previously passed training but has been out of position for a long period will be reviewed to determine if they require to take the training again. Normally, training will not expire if the break has been a year or less. If the break has been between 1 to 2 years then the case will be reviewed depending on the applicants level of activity within DI, the level of change to DI within that period and any major structural changes to DI that could make previous knowledge irrelevant. Anyone out of position for 2 or more years will be required to retake the training. This is to ensure that all staff member within Damage Inc. are up-to-date with the newest information even if they have previously passed training.
Enrolling into an Imperium Cohort is free. If you wish to enroll into the next Imperium Cohort please contact an Imperium Officer.
Certain staff are exempt from the requirement to pass IMP training. These exemptions are:
You will be required to pass an exam at the end of your Imperium Cohort month. It will consist of 20 questions to test your judgement in different situations regarding the Handbook's material and the contents of the Wiki.
In order to pass the exam a score of 60%+ is required!
Please note that IMP requirements do not overwrite basic officer requirements. For example, a Game Officer still needs to gain a total of 20 Activity Points. If the Game Officer only gains a total of 16 Activity Points, they will fail IMP and fail their monthly requirements which may result in a strike from their CoC.
