MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Training

SUBJECT Course Report - Midcareer Course
No. 46, 23 March - 25 April 1975
1. :Dike most of its predecessors, Midcareer No.
46 quickly developed the close kinship, candor and
active participation that contributed to building a
fresh awareness and respect for the responsibilities
and activities of all Agency elements, The class con-
sensus wars that the program both met its formal stated
objectives and provided an invaluable personal experi-
ence. The timing of this running was propitious, given
the particular issues and concerns raised by the Seymour
~-iexsh articles, the Rockefeller and Congressional investi-
gations, the Freedom of Information Act, Philip Agee,
Z, 'The class composition reversed the trend towards
younger participants. The average age of 39,2 was the
highest since Course No. 33 in 1972. This was also an
11 unusually senior grou b rade, with eleven GS-14's
p Y g
and only 'two GS-12~s. Combined with the degree of insecu-
rity about the role and organization of the Agency after
the investigations, these factors may have contributed
to the sober and intense character of their participation.
Occasionally there was a degree of tension, as during the
discussion of the Agency's responsibility for employees
indicted :for civil or criminal crimes connected with per-
formance of their duties. The class was very cooperative
and responsive to the chairmen, but to some extent lacked
the "free spirits' and sense of humor that have emerged
in recent runnings.

3, The 3Q students of M~:dGareex Course No, 46
represented all Directorates, Nine were from the
Operations Directorate; eight from the Directorate
fvr Administration; seven from the Intelligence Direc-
torate and six from the Directorate for Science and
Technology. The average grade was 13,3, with two
GS-12rs, seventeen GS-13's, and eleven GS-14~s. An
interesting bit of trivia on "career development"
was that seven officers had come into the Agency at
the GS-06 level or lower--one GS-14 entering as a
GS-Q3. The average age was cited earliex (39.2), with
a spread of thirty-three to forty-six. The average
Length of service was twelve years, and ranged from
four to twenty-four years.
N~aj or Changes
4, The one major change was the New York field
trip--a first on all counts, as we went by bus to New
York City for briefings by CALTEX Petroleum Company,
the EBI Field Office and the Chase Manhattan Bank.
The trip will be discussed later in this report. A
second significant addition was a presentation by
Hank Knoche on the Rockefeller Commission's focus and
functioning, and its working relationships with the
Agency. Mr. Knoche came on short notice following the
cancellation of Mr. Duckett's presentation on Agency
management.
5. The initial formal segment of the program--
the Obstacles exercise--provided for lively exchange
and the surfacing of a wide range of concerns about
the Agency in general and professional career develop-
ment. Th.e interest generated is best reflected in
the evaluation comments that (1) more time should have
been devoted to these discussions, and (2) a return to
the issues at the end of the program via small group
discussions would have been profitable. The exercise
generated. many of the questions that made for active
formal anal informal discussion periods throughout the
five weeka .

6. ~~Ir. J31ake, the opening speakex at ~, gave
conside~alble attention to his personal views on the
Future direction of the Agency after offering a brief
overview of his Directorate. Tlie DDA had appeared
before the Rockefeller Commission earlier in the day
and volun'Ceered his impressions of the Commtteers
concerns and attitude.
7. 'f he remainder of Phase T went according to
schedule, with a few speaker substitutions. The class
w'as somewJiat frustrated by its inability to learn more
about the Neither they nor
the chairmen knew of the DCTts personal injunction
against discussing this activity. Both the DDT and
't=he DDO received high marks for their candor, and the
chairmen agreed they had never heard the DDO as open
and responsive. We do need to coordinate the NPTC and
SAS presentations, as there is considerable repetition
of narrative and viewgraphs. Both elements serve impor-
tant functions, and we would not suggest the answer be
to eliminate one or the other. A pleasant surprise was
the fine presentation and discussion session provided
by OMS, usually one of the less stimulating segments
of the program.
8. Tn Phase TT, presentation was
excellent in tracing the evolution of the Intelligence
Community as an entity. Unfortunately he arrived late
and there was no time for uestions. Filling in for
George Cap?ver, followed with a low-keyed
profile of the functioning of an NIO. The highlights
of Phase ]fT were General Samuel Wilson on the IC Staff,
Colonel C]Linton Granger on the National Security Council,
and Commander Lionel Olmer on PFIAB. Colonel Granger
had just returned from a fact-finding mission to Vietnam
with the Elrmy Chief-of-Staff, General Weyand, and painted
a picture that prepared us for the collapse even as the
Administration was appealing for more military funds.
Cdr. 01mer had recently accompanied PFIAB member Leo
Cherne on a trip studying economic intelligence efforts
abroad, acid drew upon this to provide insights into the
functions and workings of the Board.

25X1A wex e #rom NSA and 25X1A
from DxA, the former a creature of his slatdes and the
lattex of his viewgraphs. Neither was particularly
effective in open discussion followin their canned
(or ''projected"?) briefings, was criticized 25X1A
by some for offering a narrow view of INR. He did focus
on the operations of his office (Latin America), but we
would contend that his more s'warking level" view did
provide useful insights. Indeed, one caution with which
we do approach evaluations is to appreciate that when
one gets the latter view, the complaint is often that
the speaker was not from a sufficiently high level--
but when one gets the senior manager, the complaint is
that he cannot deal with the substantive facets, This
problem is in part resolved in the Agency presentations
through the mix of formal presentations by senior officers
and IP's by class members. No such compatible arrangement
has been devised for s'out-of-Agency" offerings.
10. The New York field trip received mixed reactions.
The Chase Manhattan briefings and luncheon in the bank's
executive dining room were an unqualified success. Most
of the officers who briefed us attended the luncheon,
sitting around so that each class member was in easy con-
versational reach of a Chase official. The CALTEX and
FBI briefings were less well received. The criticism
of CALTEX stemmed in large measure from the last-minute
change of venue. The hotel accommodations were poorly
arranged for effective presentations and discussion,
although the senior CALTEX officers did encourage open
exchange and emphasized that they wished to focus on our
concerns rather than their own. The President's candor
was exemplified by his response as to why we were not
meeting on CALTEX premises. The-FBI briefing was given
by the special agent in charge of espionage (or what we
would call "counter-intelligences'). The session was
devoted to questions and answers after some brief intro-
ductory remarks on the office's missions. The briefing
lasted as long as there were questions (over an hour),
and was followed by a tour of the facilities. Consider-
able class criticism focused on the tour, an unexciting
exercise as there were no sophisticated displays and
the records operations was unbelievably archaic! There
were rows upon rows of safes, little evidence of auto-

mation, and no indication that-.any areas were denied
to us?, We did not anticipate that the-tour would
reveal such a primitive (by our own standards) operation
--particularly in the largest FBT field office (_1000
agents). We would suggest the tour be eliminated- in
the future. We found this an extremely informative
trip, and would recommend a repeat in the future. The
11. Phase ITT on "World Affairs" went smoothly,
with just one cancellation-- on "Energy:
Challenge of the 70's." We could not find an adequate
substitute, as our "backstops" in the "energy business"
had all taken off for Paris for an international con-
ference included!). We used the time for a class
member to show a film on lasers and discuss same, as
his individual presentation had aroused great interest
in the potential applications of this new technology.
Outstanding marks were given to
ant Secretary of Defense Robert Murra The one new
addition was 25X1A
and formerly with the Unite Nata.ons. e actua y
offered three lectures in one--the role and significance
of the United Nations today (his formal topic), the per-
formance of the People's Republic of China in the U.N.
during it.s first year of membership, and reflections on
Henry Kissinger based on twenty-five years of contact
(they were doctoral candidates together at Harvard in
the early? 1950's and have maintained their friendship).
Criticism was levied at the Assistant 25X1A
NT0 for Strategic Programs, or too many viewgraphs and
too much detail in discussing the US-Soviet Strategic
Ealance, and at Dr. R. T. Ravenholt for concentrating
mare on hiis own bureaucratic problems at ATD and dis-
cussing technology for curbing the population explosion
without devoting sufficient attention to the dimensions
of the world's population growth problems.
12. General Wilson and John McMahon attended the
class reception in the Executive Dining Room during the
final week. (A11 DDs or their deputies had been invited).
The affair was relaxed, with the only criticism it wasn't

problems
13. The only problem was the field trip, with the
details spelled out above.
14. The second problem--better described as a
disappointment--was the cancellation of Mr. Duckett~s
presentation. He was the only deputy director the
class did. not hear, and this marked the third con-
secutive cancellation of his presentation to a Midcareer
course.
Summary of Class Reaction
15. Every class members overall evaluation was
favorable. Each singled out the importance of extended
contacts with their eers from other offices and.
25X1A directorates. The ~ period was a particularly welcome
one, away from home and office, Several suggested we
lengthen the time for individual presentations, as these
frequently gave better insights into a component's
operation than the formal briefing on that office.
16. On a scale of 1 to 7, Phase T was evaluated as
5,4, phase IT as 4.5 and the last phase at 5. The lower
rating for Phase TI reflects the exasperation with the
DTA and NSA presentations, and to a lesser degree with
those of TNR and the FBT.

MIDCAREER GOURSE
The Midcareer Course was started in 1963 to ~x`ova,de
an opportunity for promising, middle-level. officers i:a
broaden their professional horizons. The Course has
become well-known throughout the Agency as an important
aspect of career development as well as a forum for the
exchange of views between senior mangers from many com-
ponents of CIA and course participants.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
~didcareer Course, members are. expected too:
1. Gain a broad understanding, of the Aygency
as a whole, the directorates and components
other than their own, and .af~ issues of
current concern. to Agency manag`e~ner~t
2. Increase their knowledge of the other
elements of the Intelligence Community
and the policy making process.
3. Obtain insight into national and inter-
national developments of significance
that bear on the U.S. foreign intelligence
effort.
PHASES
The Midcareer Course is divided into three phases
which in succession emphasize each of the three objectives.
You should, however, keep in mind that the range of subject
matter covered in each of the phases contributes to the
attainment of all three objectives.

PHASE I--THE AGENCY
The Course opens with an examination of the organization,
mission, role, and functions of the Central Intelligence
Agency. Most of you have spent your careers in one
DirectoratE~, some in one Office or division, and even a
few in one branch, therefore, our objective in this
Phase is tc~ open up the Agency to your critical, inspection,.
to broaden your perspectives on the operations of other
offices anti Directorates, and to offer you new insights
into how your job relates to the larger picture of the
inteZZigenc;e process.
0845-0900 Course Administration
Block i--Mutual Perceptions:
The Agency and Us
In the first Block of this Phase you will consider how you,
as Midearearists, see yourselves as employees and haw you
view the A;7encry. You will have an opportunity to discuss
mutual problems and to suggest solutions. The role of the
Directorate of Administration taiZZ be discussed, as will
legal and media relationships. Finally, those officers
primarily concerned with personnel and security matters
will discuss their perceptions of the problems of people
in the Agency.
0910-1200 Team Exercise: Midcareerist Obstacles
This team exercise is designed to bring our collective
thoughts, as a class, to bear on problems that we have
individually perceived at one time or another. We want
to identify and clarify obstacles that intrude upon
individual career development or on the reaZi~ation of
Agency missions. We will then seek to formulate or
suggest ways of overcoming them. The exercise should
surface anal bring into focus shared individual concerns
and concerns about the. Agency that we may explore through-
out the entire five seeks.
