A. Career Preference Outlines prepared by members of the
Registrar Staff were submitted to the Secretary, Training Career
Board, on 7 April 1965. A summary of training completed by
employees of this Staff during the past year was presented si-
multaneously.
C. In compliance with formal instructions, from DTR, budget
estimates for Registrar Staff operations in FY 1967 were submitted
on 9 April 1965 to Chief, Budget and Fiscal Branch, Support Staff.
Because of the Registrar Staff's special concern with external
training, a separate set of budget estimates was submitted for
this activity.

Retrieval Systems Course given by the Center for Information Re-
sources were very complimentary in their critiques of the Course.

Course Administrator, for a one-day presentation at Langley for

a series of get acquainted visits. On 30 March he visited the
College of General Studies, George Washington University. Es-
corted by Mr. Mike Jessup, who is our contact for the Off-Campus

General Studies orientation. Mr. Jessup returned this call a
week later at which time further discussion of the Off-Campus
program took place. On 1 April, the Registrar paid a get-ac-

tive and they agreed to handle our student, as we requested,

Memorandum
? Registrar/ TR
DATE: 12 April 1965
FROM : Deputy Chief, External Training Branch, RS/ TR
SUBJECT: Bi-Weekly Activities Report No. 8
29 March - 9 April 1965
1. The "on again - off again" course (Ballistic Missile
Staff Familiarization Course, Vandenberg Air Force Base --
one cable from SAC cancelling the course, a second cable
several days later reinstating the course, and a third cable
the next week cutting the course to four days) is running again
on 26 April. We have nominated OSI. 25X1
The Agency has two slots remaining in s lets year; one
will be filled by OSI, the other by a DDI office (staff slot). On
Friday the ONE Training Officer requested spaces for two
members of the Board of National Estimates.
OCI, attended the course at
Vandenberg in mid-March. We quote several sentences from
his report to the AD/OCI:
"It is difficult to criticize this course because it
clearly accomplishes what the Air Force wants it to it provides at least a speaking acquaintance with
US ICBM's for the company or field grade staff officer
who may deal with personnel or supply but does not
make his living on a combat missile crew. This course,
however, cannot be considered a comprehensive treat-
ment of missile systems and their whys and wherefores.
I can only compare it to the Sandia nuclear weapons
course which has somewhat the same objectives -- and
Vandenberg comes off second best. "
2. OF, has been nominated for the
next Army Management Course, beginning 26 April.

7. The case took a new twist this 25X1
week. To recapitulate: was to be enrolled in the 25X1
Central Office Maintenance Course, conducted by the Automatic
Electric Company, Northlake, Illinois. TSD originally wished
him to attend the 9 November course; however, the training
was not requested until 20 October and it was too late
to obtain a space in this running; hence, requested, through
the JCS Focal Point Officer, a space in'he ri January course.
The FPO was unable to obtain the January slot, but assured
that would be given a space in the 17 April
course. then deferred his departure for Saigon. On
Wednesday of last weel informed us its JCS contact had
called and said had been "bumped" from the April
course.

9. and I attended an orientation at the
Foreign Service Institute on 8 April. The session was chaired
by Dr. Evert Little, Admissions Officer, and presentations were
made by Mr. Daniel Quaid, Acting Registrar and Coding Chief,
and Mrs. Barbara Morlet, who handles external registrations.
The participants were training assistants from various bureaus
within the Department, USIA, and AID. Mr. Quaid used a
number of charts in his presentation, summarizing not only
the role of FSI, but also showing statistics on numbers trained
(statistics based on training requests), types of training, etc.
Following the session Dr. Little was kind enough to give me
copies of these charts, which I am attaching for your information.
There was no formal presentation given on area training, but the
attached memorandum was handed out to all present; we were
also introduced to the Regional Seminar Coordinator, Mr. Barrington
Miles.
FSI plans to reinstate
its rapid reading course this fall. It will be open to other agencies,
and the cost per student will be approximately $45.
FSI is just beginning its coding project with the intro-
duction of the new registration form (DS-755). Dr. Little plans
to issue quarterly student enrollment reports and other agencies
will be welcome to utilize these reports if they wish. (Reference
Weekly No. 2, dated 18 Jan 65, Cl ETB met previously with
Dr. Little and Mr. Quaid on the problem of coding training for
those Agency employees enrolled under cover.) The report will
include: school, code, short title, name of student, grade (GS,
FSO, etc.), status, agency, beginning and termination dates,
course total, school total, final total, and performance rating.
It was obvious from the presentation that FSI has the same type
of problems as ETB, i. e., FSI's new request form is also the
input document; the beginning date of training is coded but the
termination date is "inputted" at the time of termination, due to
the large number of withdrawals, re- schedulings, and extensions ?5X1
