In response to your inquiry regarding methodology for selection
of individuals to attend Gateway/RAPT Programs, there are a
number of proposal possibilities. Since I am presently unclear
if such selection of personnel would be applicable to the
Intelligence and Security Command in general or solely applicable
to your more restrictive requirement, I will address both.
With regard to the first requirement, it would be possible to
develop a more structured questionnaire for selecting and
evaluating potential personnel to attend the Gateway/RAPT Program.
Such a questionnaire would determine as a minimum a "best
qualified to attend" from given personnel tested, through use
of an either/or test criteria. The questionnaire would be
developed based on our current application and acceptance
process and its direct "results" relationship to empirical data
held from past Program attendance (based on approximately 4,000
past participants). In addition to developing such a testing
methodology we could also provide guidance specifically designed
from an administrative standpoint to enhance selected personnel
interaction while attending the Program (i.e., reccommended
ratios of male to female mix; military or civilian (white & blue
collar) ratios, etc.). As pertains to this first proposal, a
more refined "Draft Proposal" with projected costs can be
submitted at your convenience, should this be your specific
area of interest.
With regard to the latter area, or solely applicable to your
more restrictive application requirement, I am pleased to
inform you that a finalized proposal to implement R&D of a more
selective nature has already been submitted to MG Stubblebine for
his consideration in October, 1983. The objective of this proposal
is far more extensive in scope for obvious reasons, but I feel
it would greatly enhance your ability to determine appropriate
personnel to operate within your environment and in meeting
your current training implementation requirements. I am prepared
to implement this proposal as presented upon approval and funding
by your headquarters. Due to.the developmental time required to
produce a product which you could apply to meet your personnel
recruitment goals, I feel a usable product on which to base
selection of personnel could be provided within 11 - 12 months
of R&D implementatio

I hope the above information has answered your questions.
If you need more detail on a draft proposal applicable to
INSCOM in general, I am prepared to respond.
