Improving Space Training: A Career Model for FA40s

摘要

Training is the foundation that our professional Army is built upon. Starting in pre-commissioning training and continuing throughout an officer's career, achieving and maintaining excellence in today's Army is a constant learning process. Formal training courses, in conjunction with unit training, training exercises, professional development programs and senior-leader mentorship are key components in the development of confident and competent officers. This is as true for FA40 Space operations officers as it is for any branch or specialty in the Army. FA40 training has continued to evolve and improve since Space operations was established as a Functional Area in 1998. As we continue to refine our Space training process, we should ensure that the FA40 career model supports the training and development of our Space officers throughout their careers.
