Possible Edits to Army Reserve Officer Training Corps page
[edit]Overall the article is accurate, however some of the sub sections include out-dated information as Cadet Command is in a transition period for Cadet training.
Sub-heading: Military Science III year (MSIII)
"and preparing for successful performance at the four week Leader Development and Assessment Course during the summer following the third year."
Edit: and preparing for successful performance at the four week Cadet Leader Course during the summer following the third year.
Sub-heading: Leadership Development Program
"During the MSIII year and continuing through the Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC),"
Edit: During the MSIII year and continuing through the Cadet Leader Course (CLC),[1]
Sub-heading: Leadership Development Program
"The evaluation is usually given by an MSIV and is delivered in writing using Cadet Command Form 156-4A-R commonly referred to as a "Blue Card" due to its traditional color. For each dimension and once overall for the entire rotation in a leadership position the MSIII cadet is evaluated with one of three letters: E - Exceeds the Standard (Excellent), S - Satisfactory, or N - Needs Improvement.[1] At the end of the MSIII school year these evaluations are collected to create a school Order of Merit List (OML) which can give a cadet extra points towards the National OML upon completion of LDAC."
Edit: The evaluation was once given by an MSIV and was delivered in writing using Cadet Command Form 156-4A-R commonly referred to as a "Blue Card" due to its traditional color. For each dimension and once overall for the entire rotation in a leadership position the MSIII cadet is evaluated with one of three letters: E - Exceeds the Standard (Excellent), S - Satisfactory, or N - Needs Improvement. Blue Cards are currently being phased out by Cadet Command and being replaced by what is referred to as an Officer Evaluation Report (OER) which has similar dimensions to its predecessor. The OER does not include the E, S, or N and instead utilizes a "Yes" or "No" standard for each dimension[2]. The OER is traditionally used in the Army for promotion boards recommendation. At the end of the MSIII school year these evaluations are collected to create a school Order of Merit List (OML) which can give a cadet extra points towards the National OML upon completion of CLC.[3]
Sub-heading: Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC)
"The Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC) (formerly Advanced Camp) is a paid four-week leadership course formerly conducted at Fort Lewis, Washington, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and Fort Riley, Kansas, during the summer. Beginning in the summer of 2014, LDAC will be consolidated at Fort Knox, Kentucky. Typically, cadets attend LDAC during the summer between their first and second years in the Advanced Course (junior and senior year of college). At LDAC, cadets take on various leadership roles and are evaluated on their performance and leadership abilities in those positions. Cadets also participate in adventure training, to include: confidence and obstacle courses, rappelling, water safety, weapons firing, and patrolling. Cadets must attend and complete this course to earn an Army commission."
