These programs, which provide a broad range of general and personnel management training opportunities at the junior through the executive level, should be considered as supplementary to OTR's management courses; in many instances, internal courses will be prerequisite to the non-Agency programs. The listing identifies the sponsoring facility, the name of the course or program, and the level, or levels, whether junior ( 1), middle (2), or executive (3). Each program is then individually described, the details presented by program or course title under the name of the sponsoring organization. The description also includes the length of the course, its frequency and location, for whom it is intended, its cost, and its objectives and content. Those programs which fall under the purview of the Agency's Training Selection Board are identified by the designation "TSB" following the title. The list should be used-as a guide only, for other existing programs may be more suitable under specific circumstances and new programs are regularly being announced. Requests for management training programs on the list will not be automatically approved, nor will requests for similar courses not appearing on the list be automatically denied. As in the past, each request will be individually considered by OTR. Requests for courses not on the list, however, should be accompanied by particularly thorough justification. It is to be noted that the executive develop- ment programs of Columbia, Cornell, Pittsburgh, and Pennsylvania State Universities have been included as possible alternatives for the Harvard programs.
