    It's not a Bridge Officer skill, is a skill that YOU (or your character) get at level 8

    It's a Lieutenant rank skills for Science Bridge Officers You can get better versions at higher ranks. You can train an Science BO at the Officer Trainer contact in the Personnel section in Spae Dock.

    Its a Captain skill (your character), not something you can train your BOs in. Some skills your captain gets either as accolades or in Kits, are not going to be trainable for BOs... like Triage, which thematically I wish I could give to my doctor character. >.>

    >.> I'm not sure how to be more clear about it then this. Charged Particle Burst is a standard Brdige Officer skill at least up until Rank 2, whereas Rank 3 can only be trained by Science Captains that have maxed a specific skill (the skill will list that it allows training of that rank).

    It's available to Science Bridge Officers of Lieutenant rank or higher.

    Sensor Scan is a Science Officer skill. So ... if you are rolled as a Science Officer, you will receive such skill when you level to the appropriate level. Not sure if your BO's get it, but I think they can get the Charged Particle Burst. Also, pay attention to what skills the officers that you gain throughout the game have. If they have a certain skill, train it over to your BO if you want to keep your existing crew. Or replace the old officer with the new one.

    Other than the skills themselves, this thread might be useful/relevant: http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=133923

    Charged particle burst will decloak ships within a 5k radius. Just head towards the cloaked ships on the minimap and then run your particle burst.

    Pardon the backtracking - but what accolades give extra skills? The only non standard Accolade I got was for jumping into a Fire Urn on one planet and it had no benefits.

    Technically speaking, things like Rotate Shield Frequency and Evasive Maneuvers are granted by Accolades (you can even track them in your Accolade panel). They're listed as Ability: Lieutenant I, II, II, and so on.
