FROM : Chief, Administrative Staff, ORR
SUBJECT: Professional Administrative Officer Program
DATE: 13 November 19~1
1. The Office of Research and Reports need for administrative
training, as proposed in the attached memorandum, is limited by the
following factors:
a. ORR maintains an Administrative Staff composed
of personnel selected for their academic and
experience qualifications in the housekeeping
and substantive aspects of administration.
b. Each operating research division within ORR is
provided with a T/O position for an administrative
assistant, who is charged with the handling of
administrative details under the technical
directions of the Administrative Staff.
c. Administration of research is effectively main-
tained by key persons at branch and division
levels, selected for their ability and experience
to this end.
d. To date no survey has been made to determine the
amount of supervisory training necessary or useful
to ORR operations. 'While it is realized that
administration taken in its broadest sense must
begin with the first line supervisor, it is felt
that informal on-the-job experience is satisfacto-
rily meeting the needs in this area. The technical
type of supervisory training which might accompany
such programs as performance evaluations can be
met in a more formal manner when the needs arise.
2. In more specific reply to the listed actions, this office
finds insufficient need existing to warrent further comment on numeriod
fk requirements or T/0 expansion for the purposes su? vested.
