A Study of the Army's Advanced Civilian Schooling Programs.
King, Joseph S.
The purpose of the study is to review the official and unofficial U.S. Army policy toward graduate level education at civilian institutions. Particular attention is paid to: (1) the Army's advanced civilian schooling programs; (2) whether the Army receives a reasonable return on its financial and manpower expenditures on these programs; (3) what effect Army policy toward advanced civilian education has on officer career development; and (4) the plans for these programs in the immediate future. The major sources for information in the study were the official Army regulations and directives pertaining to civilian graduate education of active duty officers, including reports from Department of the Army review boards, the Army Educational Requirements Board, and the General Accounting Office. An interview with an official of the Office of Personnel Operations, unofficial working papers from that office, and papers from the Command and General Staff College and the Army War College were also used.
