MEMORANDUM TO: Training Ilaison Officers
FROM8 Director of Training
SUBJECT: Summer Area Programs
1. The Office of Training is prepared to enter into negotiation for
the establishment of special area programs during the summer months, either
by arranging special programs in universities, or by bringing one or two
area specialist into the Agency as cleared consultants to give instruction
during the summer. The contemporary and practical, rather than the academic,
aspects of the areas would be emphasized in either case.
2, Programs in universities can be arranged for from four to eight
weeks, fume. T e normal program of the institution would be rearranged
so as to emphasize matters of interest to CIA. It would be uneconomical to
arrange such a program for less than 15 students. If necessary, arrangements
can be made
3. Programs in the Agency can be arranged by bringing in for the
summer as cleared consultants one or two specialists in each area. First
rate men can probably be obtained for the summer more easily than during
the academic year.. They would conduct seminars for employees, for about
two hours a day over a period of eight weeks with the employees at their
regular duties. In order that the best use be made of men of this calibres
employees should be required to carry on fairly extensive reading before
the seminar begins, unless they are already familiar with the area.
1. You are requested to determine the number of employees your office
wishes to have participate in the possible programs listed, internal and
external,-on the attached sheet, which you are asked to return to Chief,
