2010-11 is the previous school year

Firsts

• The first year of the new hierarchy proposed in the 2010 Proposal to Change the Hierarchy.
• The first year of conduits/in-habitat patch panel. This was the result of a complete revamp of the Alpha Systems. Although it was prompted by the School Board and consumed the first semester of worksessions, it resulted in an entire network of conduits and tracks, as well as the installation in Command and Control of a large patch panel. This allows the astronauts to actively replace parts of the network or phones by switching cables or switching the ports used (which of course must be accompanied by a corresponding switch on the other end, leading to an increased necessity for communication in the solving of Beta problems), and it means a better and more organised system with more fail-safes.
• Training is planned to be revamped, with proper Task Force leaders constantly in charge of training members in various stations.
• EEPs are planned to be brought back for the first time since 2005-06.
• Training Missions are planned to be revamped; instead of semi-regular training missions, workshops will be held as they were a decade ago and longer. Members will sign up or be selected for a work session-long workshop on certain tasks necessary for Spacesim.
• The first Automated Mission was launched in this year.
• The first educational seminars were held in recent history.
• The first mission to a location outside our solar system.
• The first workshops at a work session since at least 10 years before (the only remaining knowledge of workshops comes from a hand-scrawled note, in a color of ink and a style of handwriting [blue, large cursive] similar to that of the venerable Milary, found in Keplernicus. Because of this it is theorized that the OCESS had no training worksessions for at least 15 years before the one on February 4, 2011).
