the inaugural group of ]students to use the
training facility. For this running of the MCC,
major effort has gone into making the Course more interactive with the
addition of a series of tasking exercises and other group-related activities.

achievement level in a special report. The new data shows that the University

i. A meeting was held on 25 January at the George Washington Memorial
Parkway (GWMP) headquarters with personnel from the Federal Highway
Administration and GWMP authorities concerning the acceleration lane on the
northbound side of the Parkway. A site survey concluded that the proposal was
sound and we should proceed. Work will begin in early summer 1985 and will be
completed in less than a month. A traffic barrier wall planned for the median
strip may take longer but will not impact the traffic flow. Cost for the
project is estimated at $750,000 and when completed will eliminate a serious
safety problem which exists to northbound traffic exiting the Headquarters
Compound at the Parkway gate.

1. As a result of a suggestion from a Career Trainee (CT), the Career
Trainee Development Course staff decided to implement a change whereby CTs
would introduce speakers to the class. Directorate of Operations CTs will
introduce DO speakers, Directorate of Intelligence CTs will introduce DI
speakers, and so forth. The Office of Training and Education has found that
this minor change has involved CTs more intimately in the process of the
course. To date, CTs are demonstrating considerable poise and confidence on
stage. The speakers seem to like it too.
3. Significant activities anticipated during the coming week:
a. On Tuesday evening, 5 February, the DDA will address the Midcareer
b. On Wednesday afternoon, 6 February, the DDA will address the
Office of Logistics' Procurement Workshop at
c. On Thursday evening, 7 February, the DDA will address the Advanced
