BRIEFING
COURSE
The Intelligence Briefing Course will be
given on Monday and Wednesday mornings
for the four weeks of 4 through 27 March.
The course is open to professionals in the
Agency, with preference given to those who
have briefing responsibilities. It will
probably be given at 1000 Glebe although
circumstances may require it be given at
the Headquarters Building.
The Intelligence Briefing course consists of
instruction in and practice of the basic tech-
niques of intelligence briefing. The methods
of instruction are seminar discussion of
briefing objectives and problems, preparation
and delivery of assigned briefings, and class
and instructor critiques of performance. At
least two of the briefings will be video-taped.
The basic briefing techniques studied and
practiced are platform techniques, audience
and occasion analysis, substantive organization,
coherence and clarification devices, design
and use of briefing notes, design and use of
visual aids, answering questions, and briefing-
team techniques.
Briefing assignments are tailored to the areas
of specialization and responsibility of the
individual members of the class. This course
is designed primarily for individuals who
have briefing responsibilities.

OFFICE OF COMMUNICATIONS
-/&d &&4c ti 9 ,vino "M d'edctded
The Director of Communications shall, according to
"Provide, in cooperations with the Director of Training, for training
of selected employees in technical phases of electronic communications
including the use of radio, teletypewriter, cryptographic systems, and
other communications equipmert, systems procedures, and means. "
The Office of Communications has operated a training facility
25X9 since 1951. Nearlyl have received training during
the intervening years. During FY 1967, are train-
ed as well as 83 individuals from other components of the Agency
and 8 from the Department of State.
At the present time the school is staffed by twenty-six instructors
and offers 45 different courses. The courses offered vary in length
from a three day "Recorder Maintenance Course" to a twenty-five
week course which prepared newly hired radio operators for assign-
ments to radio stations in the Agency's world wide communications
network. Other major courses prepare the Office of Communications
cryptographers and maintenance technicians for their duty assignments.
The ever-increasing complexity of communications equipment
necessitates recurring training for communications personnel through-
out their careers. A considerable portion of the OC training effort
is given to this type of training.
Although most of the courses are intended for employees of the
Office, there are twelve courses that are primarily for personnel
from other components of the Agency. These are all cryptographic
courses which prepare individuals for assignments to offices, bases
or stations where the number of messages generated is not sufficient
to warrant the services of a full-time OC cryptographer. The
cryptographic courses require from one week for a simple crypto-
graphic system of relatively restricted use up to five weeks for a
course that qualifies an individual in a machine cryptographic system
employed at certain bases and stations throughout the world.

Although cryptographic training may sound interesting and
perhaps a bit "cloak and daggerish" to be uninitiated, it is a precise
repetitive type of work that quickly disenchants many students.
When this happens the length of the various cryptographic courses
is frequently questioned. Students will claim that they have learned
the mechanics of the cryptographic systems and that the drills and
practice making up much of the training time are unnecessary. The
length of courses is also questioned when other training must be
fitted into an individuals processing schedule before departure for
his new post. Sponsors of such individuals are reminded that the
Director of Communications is responsible for the integrity of
the Agency's electrical communications. He must be absolutely
certain that all Agency cryptographers meet the communications
security standards of the National Communications Security Board,
the National Security Agency and those peculiar to the Central
Intelligence Agency. These communications security standards
require not only the correct employment of a cryptographic system
but also the proper storage, accounting and safeguarding of
cryptographic material and equipment. Repetitive demonstration
of an individual's knowledge of cryptography and communications
security is required before the Director of Communications is
assured that an individual is competent to assume responsibility
as an Agency cryptographer.
Schedules for cryptographic courses are furnished to Training
Officers on request. Scheduling is coordinated with the Office of
Training so as to be compatible with the OTR courses most often
attended by personnel being assigned to small stations or bases.
Requests for cryptographic training are submitted on Form 104,
"Request for Staff Cryptographic Training. " Training Officers
should consult with the Communications Training Officer, Extension
before submitting the request to insure that the requested
course will meet the current requirements of the individual's post
of assignment.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11348
In 1958 the Government Employees Training Act (GETA)
was passed "to provide a means for keeping key employees
well abreast of scientific, professional, technical, and manage-
ment developments both in and out of Government. " The Act
was implemented in 1959 by Executive Order 10800. In 1967,
both the Executive and Legislative Branches of the Federal
Government published studies on the progress of training govern-
ment employees under GETA. Both the "Report of the Presidential
Task Force on Career Advancement" and the " Report Covering
Effectiveness of Implementation of the GETA, " prepared by a
subcommittee of the Committee on Post Office and Civil Service,
U. S. House of Representatives, found GETA, as amended, to
appropriately allow for needed training and education programs
for professional, administrative and technical employees. The
Task Force recommended that the President issue an Executive
Order which "established basic policy for improvement of the
public service through maximum exploitation of better training
and education, taking into account productive new practices in
industry and Government. " Executive Order 11348, signed
20 April 1967 was the result which among other things revoked
EO 10800 of January 15, 1959.
The new Executive Order expands the role of responsibilities
of the Civil Service Commission for planning and promoting
the development, improvement, coordination, and evaluation
of training performed in accordance with GETA. The Commission
was additionally charged with "providing leadership and guidance
to insure that the policy set forth in section 102 (Executive
Order) is carried out. " This policy as set forth in the Executive
Order states "It is the policy of the Government of the United
States to develop its employees through the establishment and
operation of progressive and efficient training programs, there-
by improving public service, increasing efficiency and economy,
building and retaining a force of skilled and efficient employees,
and installing and using the best modern practices and techniques
in the conduct of the Government's business.
The Executive Order requires that "the head of each agency
shall plan, program, budget, operate and evaluate training pro-
grams in accordance with the GETA and with the policy set forth

in section 102 of this order." Other key responsibilities
of each agency head include: a) encourage self-development
by employees; b) develop and use agency facilities for
training; c) use interagency training programs where appro-
priate; e)regularly determine training requirements to bring
about more effective performance at the least possible cost;
f) establish training facilities and services as needed; g) establish
criteria for the selection of employees for training; h) after
consideration of advice of the Department of State, designate a
foreign government or international organization or instrument-
ably of either as eligible to provide training.

PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION
Is ...
the name given to any of several techniques that differ in certain
ways but share three basic characteristics: (1) the teaching
material is designed to involve the student actively in the process
of learning; (2) the material provides immediate systematic
feedback to the student, feedback that is informative and rewarding;
and (3) the material is tested and revised until it demonstrates
that it does teach successfully.
The term "program" designates a carefully arranged sequence of
teaching material consisting of information, questions and exercises
designed to encourage active participation by the student at each
step of the learning process. In working through a program the stu-
dent does the following or some approximation of it: (1) He
reads a unit of information or studies a picture, chart or display.
(2) He makes a response to the material. His response may entail
answering a question by filling in a blank or blanks in a sentence;
by selecting a multiple-choice alternative; or by composing a sentence,
a paragraph, or in some programs an essay. (3) He is shown the
correct answer so that he may compare his own answer to it.
(4) He moves on to the next item when he is prepared to do so, in
other words at his own pace, insofar as such self-pacing is feasible
or desirable in his particular educational setting.
The way of learning is not new. The programs themselves are new,
however, for they are developed in special ways, ways often quite
different from the development of textbooks and workbooks. Good
programs are always written with highly specific objectives in mind--
that is, they are designed to teach the student to do clearly specified
jobs when he is finished- -because such objectives make it possible
to test whether the program is successful. During the writing each
program is systematically tested and revised until it can be shown
to do what it was intended to do.
The differences among program formats, styles and even philosophies
of programming are sometimes a source of confusion, but in fact
they can be put to advantageous use because they provide the teacher
with an array of techniques for doing different kinds of teaching jobs.
The teacher's problem is to select the-programming techniques that
suit his or her requirements best.

To help in making such selections, the major program types will
be described here briefly, but the selection of programmed mate-
rials should always depend finally on the results of trying them
out. More will be said about this procedure at the end of the
booklet.
Essentially, there are two major types of programs, referred to
as "linear" and "intrinsic. " In terms of format, a linear program
usually consists of constructed responses: the student must compose
an answer, whether it is one word, a sentence, a paragraph or a
diagram. An intrinsic program usually uses the multiple-choice
format--the student selects an answer from an array of possibilities.
Intrinsic programs also make extensive use of branching sequences.
Most common branches usually consist of a single item explaining
why a particular answer was incorrect; they may also be loops or
sets of items designed to clear up misunderstandings or to review
material with which the student has had difficulty. In some programs
they are intended to provide enrichment material to the student who
is learning quickly.
An example of a linear program is shown in a series of frames from
an OTR program designed to teach application of per diem.
39. The next step is learning how to compute oer diem
for a trip that is less than 24 hours long.
A rule for short trips is, 'when travel occurs between
the hours of 0600 and 2000 the travel period must be over
10 hours in length before per diem can be claimed.'
For example: You flew to New York City for the day,
leaving National Airport, Washington, D. C. at 0900 and
returning at 1500 the same day.
How many hours were you in a travel period? . 6 hours
40. You counted the hours from 0900 to 1500 and found
that the travel period was only 6 hours long. Can you
claim per diem?

41. Let's say that you flew to New York City another
day, leaving National Airport at 0900 hours, returning
to Washington at 2130.
Are you eligible to claim per diem? yes
42. Maybe the reasoning behind the restriction of per
diem payment is that most travelers will be able to eat
breakfast at home before 0600 and if they return by
2000 they will probably eat their evening meal at home.
This leaves lunch as the only possible item of
personal expense and it really isn't an unusual one
since most people have their noon meal away from where
they live.
Do you think having breakfast before 0600 is too
early? Most people do.
43. There is a further allowance for people who must
begin a trip very early (before 0600) or who complete a
trip very late (after 2000). When either of these conditions
exists, the traveler needs to be away only 6 hours or
more in order to claim per diem.
Let's assume that you left Washington, D. C. by air
at 1700 for a meeting in New York City. The meeting was
over quickly and you were back in Washington by 2130.
No. The travel
Can you claim per diem? period was only
4 1/Z hours long.
44. On the other hand, let's assume that the evening
meeting in New York City, mentioned in the preceding
item, lasted much longer and you didn't get back to
Washington until 2345.
How many hours were you in a travel period? 6 3/4 hrs
Can you claim per diem? yes

(AB) or (Aa), to be true, both parts must be true.
See 3. 5.
3. 6B Your answer is that (Aa) is always false. You are correct.
You have correctly seen that in order for a combined
statement, such as (AB) or (Aa), to be true, both parts
must be true. Since both A and a cannot be simultaneously
true, (Aa) must always be false. Turn to page 3. 7.
3.6C Your answer is that (Aa) is sometimes true and sometimes
false. You are incorrect. Notice that for a combined
statement, such as (AB) or (Aa), to ever be true, both
parts must be true. See 3. 5.
Format differences, however, are not the most important distinction
between linear and intrinsic programs. More and more linear programs
use multiple-choice responses and branches where they are appropriate.
The basic distinction between the types of programs is the approach to
teaching. Intrinsic programs generally provide less guidance to the
student: he deals with relatively large blocks or information and is
given a remedial step when he makes an error. In linear programs the
material is sequenced so that the student's responses are most likely
to be correct, at least during the early stages, and immediate feedback
is provided throughout. Proponents of linear programming believe that
exposing a student to incorrect answers may increase the likelihood that
he will learn them, and also that repeated failure will actively discourage
him from learning.
The relative effectiveness of linear versus intrinsic programs depends
on both the subject matter of the programs and the students for whom
they are intended. There are far more linear (though not necessarily
purely linear) programs available and this suggests that they may have
a wider applicability than intrinsic programs. In a sense they do, for
they can be effectively used to teach basic educational skills and funda-
mentals particularly to students whose motivation is demonstrably not
very high or to students who are fearful of the subject matter. It is
not accidental that so many linear programs have been prepared in the
areas of mathematics and science, for these areas are often trouble
spots in the process of education, and linear programs have shown
themselves to be particularly useful in these areas.
The results of program use to date suggest that linear materials are
particularly effective in introducing new subject matter and in pro-
viding remedial instruction. Intrinsic programs seem well suited to
providing enrichment and to instructing relatively mature, well moti-
vated students. Students in the latter group prefer the challenge of

larger blocks of material, and many of these students have the
study skills to do well with such material. Younger (elementary
school) students and those whose study skills are less well develop-
ed often find linear programs rewarding; the same can be said about
students who have had relatively little success with more traditional
educational materials. These students, whether they are inattentive,
poorly motivated, or slow to grasp, generally find linear programs
effective and react positively to them.

The Modern Foreign Language Association of America has
compiled an interesting profile of colleges and universities
which offer the various tongues of the world.
. . . . It is particularly interesting to note that out of 2, 207
junior colleges, colleges and universities which were canvassed,
1, 933 of them now offer foreign languages ranging from French
to Xhosa.
. . . . Latin, known in some circles as the dead language,
was found to be offered by 626 institutions. Students totalling
37, 921 were taking the Latin language on the undergraduate
level, while 1, 667 of them were doing graduate work.
. . . Aside from the popular languages which are taught
at leading institutions throughout the country there are some
others which appear interesting and are beneficial to the students
such as:
Vietnamese: Cornell, Univ. of Washington, Yale.
Tagalog: California at Los Angeles, Cornell, Univ. of Hawaii,

SYSTEMS WORKSHOP FOR COMPUTER SPECIALISTS (continued)
A comprehensive four-week, two-part basic training program in
the ADP Systems Development Process. The objective is to teach
programmers and others with programming experience the fundamental
concepts and skills of computer systems analysis for management
oriented applications. The goal is to produce "junior" analysts who
can do systems work under the minimal guidance of experienced analysts.
Phase I defines the requirements of the job and how these requirements
fit into the total systems development process. From a broad look at
the whole process, the student is drawn to the identification of specific
techniques and their use by the analyst. Emphasis is on the relation-
ship of the analyst to the "user", to management, to programming
functions, and to data processing operations.
Phase II trains the new analyst in the basic skills and techniques of
the art. Case problems are related to lecture points which bring
out specific systems design techniques, following the general sequence
presented in the first phase.
Entire course, $500; Phase I only, $160; Phase II only, $375.

methods of analysis are offered as new concepts and not as vocational tools
to be mastered and applied. The participant learns about new ways of
tackling old problems, and, after he has returned to his firm, he may become
motivated to seek out the new skills and tools required to implement his
new knowledge.
The program is designed and organized around four core areas: (1) the
measurement, planning, and control of costs and of financial resources -
accounting, controllership, and financial management; (2) the study of a
number of changing forces at work in the economy and their influence on
business decisions; (3) new insights into and knowledge about individual
and organizational behavior; (4) a deeper understanding of the nature of the
power and resonsibility exercised in management. Cost: Approx. $3500.
This includes tuition, all instructional materials, accommodations, and all
meals.
