Utilization of USAR War College Students: A Critical Review

摘要

This research study looks at current US Army policy, procedures, and practices pertaining to the selection and the utilization of USAR students while at and after graduation from the United States Army War College. Active Army, US Air Force, US Navy, and National Guard practices are examined for comparison purposes and to determine if their policies and procedures are worth incorporating into USAR policy or procedures. Data for this project was collected from documents, meetings, and both personal and telephone interviews with officials in various fields and activities. The basic assumption behind the project is that the USAR does not have effective policies or procedures for utilization of USAR War College graduates. Data gathered generally supported this assumption. The study concludes that more effective utilization of USAR War College students is possible and recommends actions that could be taken to improve USAR AWC student utilization. (Author)
