TAILORED, TALENT-BASED MILITARY EDUCATION LEVEL-4 STRATEGY INTO THE
ARMY COMMAND AND GENERAL STAFF COLLEGE (CGSC)COMMAND AND GENERAL
STAFF OFFICER COURSE (CGSOC) PROGRAM//
1. (U) SITUATION.
UNCLAS FOUO
UNCLAS FOUO
PAGE 4 OF 7
1.A. (U) INTERMEDIATE LEVEL OFFICER PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION
IS CRITICAL TO THE PROFESSIONAL AND INTELLECTUAL GROWTH OF THE TOTAL
ARMY FORCE. THE TTBM4 PROGRAM TAILORS COURSE VENUES AND TALENT-BASED
OFFICER SELECTION TO BETTER ALIGN BRANCH AND FUNCTIONAL AREA
SPECIALTIES WITH PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION AND WARFIGHTING NEEDS OF THE
ARMY. RESTRUCTURING PROVIDES ENRICHED CREDENTIALING COURSE LEARNING
EXPERIENCES FOR BASIC BRANCH OFFICERS OF ALL THREE ARMY COMPONENTS.
THIS MODEL ADDITIONALLY FACILITATES CREDENTIALING OF FUNCTIONAL AND
SPECIAL BRANCH OFFICERS PRE OR POST CGSOC BY PROVIDING FLEXIBILITY
AND OPTIONS FOR TALENT MANAGEMENT AND EDUCATION.
1.B. (U) OFFICERS SELECTED FOR CGSOC PROGRAMS ATTEND EITHER A 10
MONTH RESIDENT COURSE; A BLENDED SATELLITE PROGRAM; OR A DISTANCE
LEARNING PROGRAM. AS A RESULT, ONLY HALF OF THE OFFICER CORPS HAS
ANY RESIDENT EXPERIENCE AT FORT LEAVENWORTH. THIS LACK OF DIVERSE,
SMALL-GROUP INTERACTION CREATES A GAP IN PROFESSIONAL GROWTH FOR MANY
OFFICERS; SINCE THIS IS THE LAST PME COURSE MOST OFFICERS ATTEND, IT
IS IMPORTANT THAT THEY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME LEVEL OF RESIDENT
EXPERIENCE. MANY TALENTED OFFICERS ARE CURRENTLY FORCED TO CHOOSE
BETWEEN RESIDENT CGSOC ATTENDANCE AND FELLOWSHIPS OR INTERNSHIPS.
ADDITIONALLY, IN CASES WHERE OFFICERS ARE IMPACTED WITH UNFORESEEN
ISSUES (MEDICAL, PREGNANCY, PERSONAL), A TAILORED PROGRAM ALLOWS THE
ARMY TO SHAPE PME FOR A BROADER GROUP OF OFFICERS WITH A VARIETY OF
OPTIONS.
2. (CUI) MISSION. BEGINNING 4TH QUARTER, FY 21, TRADOC RESTRUCTURES
MEL-4 PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION TO EXPAND RESIDENT EDUCATIONAL
OPPORTUNITIES FOR EACH OFFICER COHORT THROUGH A COMBINATION OF
RESIDENT, BLENDED, AND DISTANCE LEARNING MODALITIES WHILE TAILORING
COURSES TO INTEGRATE CREDIT FOR FELLOWSHIPS AND SPECIALTY AREA
EDUCATION, WITH RESTRUCTURING OPERATIONS COMPLETED NLT 4TH QUARTER
FY23.
3. (U) EXECUTION.
3.A. (U) INTENT.
3.A.1. (U) TTBM4 MODEL INCREASES THE OPPORTUNITIES TO BUILD
WARFIGHTING FUNCTION COMPETENCIES IN THE ARMY, TO MANAGE TALENT BY
PROVIDING FLEXIBILITY AND TAILORABLE OPTIONS, AND TO INCREASE THE
OPPORTUNITY FOR A RESIDENCE MEL-4 EXPERIENCE.
3.A.2. (U) RESTRUCTURING WILL SUSTAIN THE DA-DIRECTED STUDENT LOAD
AND MAINTAINS OR EXPANDS CURRENT PROGRAM ANNUAL SEAT CAPACITY. THE
RESTRUCTURED PROGRAM WILL REDISTRIBUTE PRESENT ACC/SP BR/ARNG/USAR
ANNUAL QUOTA ALLOCATIONS BETWEEN THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS.
3.A.3. (U) ENDSTATE. FORT LEAVENWORTH'S RESIDENCE CGSOC PROGRAM
WILL INCLUDE THE CURRENT 10-MONTH RESIDENCE COURSE AND ADD TWO TDY
BLENDED LEARNING VENUES, CGSOC-CC AND CGSOC-AOC. THE RESTRUCTURED
SATELLITE PROGRAM WILL CONTINUE TO INCLUDE CGSOC-CC AT FORT BELVOIR
AND REDSTONE ARSENAL.
3.B. (U) CONCEPT OF THE OPERATION.
3.B.1. (U) TRADOC ESTABLISHES TWO (2) TDY COURSES - ONE (1) CGSOC-CC
AND ONE (1) CGSOC-AOC TDY BLENDED LEARNING COURSES AS PART OF THE
RESIDENCE CGSOC PROGRAM.
