SUBJECT Course Report Introduction to CIA
20 September to 1 October 1976
Introductory Comments
1. The second running of Introduction to CIA took
place from 20 September to 1 October 1976. The course
covered Agency Management concerns, the Agency and its
employees, the intelligence process, and the CIA's place
in the Intelligence Community. The functional approach
again proved to be both utilitarian and beneficial to
class members by placing a certain p specti on the
course. /4 2
2. Class evaluations indicate that the course
objectives (see course objectives stated in attached
Schedule) were met and that the second running was indeed
a success. Presentations were of high quality and class
participation was also good. The content and flow of
the course through the functional approach appeared to
achieve a good balance. After hearing in depth about the
Agency, the final presentation of the course focused on
the Intelligence Community, thus providing an opportunity
for the participants to learn where the Agency fits into the
Community structure from both a policy and a resource point
of view. Two field trips were taken during the second
week of the course--one to the Imagery Analysis Service at
and the other to the Operations Center at
Headquarters. Both were highly acclaimed by the class
members.

3. The staff, as before, integrated themselves into
the course structure, providing a visible framework as
well as continuity by presenting and outlining the
different themes throughout the course period. New graphics
were prepared for the administrative remarks and opening
session in order to provide a foundation for the course.
Having been encouraged to use the visual media approach,
speakers are even now updating their graphics, especially
for this course. The class was queried about the possibility
of including spouses in future course runnings, probably
in an evening session devoted to a briefing on the Agency.
The class reaction was very positive toward this idea.
Composition of the Class
The group was relatively new in terms of Agency
experience, with just over half of the class having joined
the Agency in the past eight months. The class population
was not well balanced in terms of Directorates; nearly
75 percent of the members came from the Directorate 'of
Administration Science and Technology. Fifteen members
of the class were from the Office of Security, enrolled
in their special training program. There appeared, however,
to be good class interaction and participation (see attached
statistics).
Class Evaluation
1. The class was asked to assign a numerical rating
on a scale of 1 (slight) to 7 (highly satisfactory),
indicating the degree to which the course met its stated
objectives. The average rating was 5.7, indicating that
the course had met these objectives.
2. Many components of the course were very well
received; the three that drew the most favorable comments
were the Imagery Analysis Service of the Directorate of
Intelligence, CIA and the Media, and the Intelligence
Community.

3. Several selected remarks by individual class
members reinforced the evaluation statistics concerning
the success of the course. They are as follows: "the
course provided an excellent overview of CIA"; "the
course has shown me how my Directorate relates to other
organizations in the Community"; and "the course provided
specific insight into the various components of the Agency."
Concerning the large group of officers from Security,
there appeared to be a slight overlap in training between
our program and their initial two-week segment held at
Headquarters. However, the overlap appears to be minimal,
and steps have already been taken to eradicate any
redundancy.
Conclusion
The course again appeared to be very successful and
proved well worth the effort which went into its preparation
