So each Captain of a squad should get some organizer skill?

I never knew that.  TIL.

[Utaelilya]

I set up my first militia captain by picking the highest agility dwarf I can find (this is rather important!) and assigning him 5 teaching, 4 fighting, 1 organizer (You can avoid this last skill by making him a manager and doing work orders). 

I then gear him out by giving him at least a metal helmet, a leather/wood shield, leather robe/dress, leather mittens/gloves, leather high boots, and a wooden training weapon (axe/spear/sword).
I pick the type of weapon based upon what I want my squad to use.

I then have him attack the local wildlife (preferably weak ones at first) until he gets a decent amount of fighting skills. 
-Having him use a wooden weapon allows him to train(torture) on his victims for a greater amount of time before they die. 
-The reason why high agility is important is because he will chase critters around endlessly without fighting otherwise. 
-Having points in organization reduces the amount of time it takes him to organize training sessions.

I also typically have butcher and tanner skills on other dwarves when I embark to take advantage of my military kills.  I hope this helps.

What does organizer help with?

Read what's highlighted in red.  If you don't have points in it, a bunch of your militia wait around doing nothing waiting for training sessions.

Ohh didnt get that small part :3
My bad!

You don't have to give them the skill, they will actually train up in it.  However, I notice the trainees sit around waiting forever if you don't have any.
