MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Training
SUBJECT Course Report - Midcareer Course No. 49,
9 November - 12 December 1975
1 Midcareer Course No. 49, overall, was a successfuF-"-
running. :[n the staff's view the participaiLtacam.e together
as a group very early during the two weeks at _ and this
attitude remained throughout the five weeks. This class
spirit prompted a free exchange of ideas between the members
of the course and led to a lively interchange with the
speakers.
2. :Phase I on the Agency was rated highest by the
class followed by Phase III, Phase II and the field trip.
The class did not meet with the Director in the concluding
session due to a commitment on the Hill. The DDCI substi-
tuted for Mr. Colby. Mr. Duckett had to cancel his session
with the class, but the other Deputy Directors met the
group. The class generally felt that the course met its
stated objectives and, in a less measurable way, their own
personal objectives.
Statistics
3. Thirty students began the course at = but one
of the DDO participants was pulled out before the end of the
second week to go on a TDY associated with the President's
trip to Peking. The 29 members who completed the course
represented the DCI Area and the four Directorates. Nine
were from the Operations Directorate, seven from the
Intelligence Directorate, six from the Directorate of
Administration, and six from the Directorate of Science and
Technology. There was one member from the DCI Area. The
average age of the class was 38.8 years, ranging between
31 and 50. The average grade was GS-13.3, with ten
GS-12s, fourteen GS-13s, four GS-14s and one GS-15. The
average length of service was 11 years, with a range of two
to twenty years. There were two women in the class.

Major Changes
4. There were no major changes in the running of this
course. Two new presentations were scheduled in Phase I.
The first was a panel comprised of members of the Management
Advisory Group which discussed the role of MAG and management
pro em as seen by junior officers. The second was a
discussion of the role and responsibilities of the Inspector
General. In Phase III there was a presentation on the
Soviet Navy which preceded the field trip to Norfolk and a
discussion of the Report" by one of the members of
the task force which considered proposals for the reorgani- 25X1A
zation of the Agency. The ratings of these presentations
ranged from fair to outstanding.
5. Phase I proceeded smoothly. There were no cancel-
lations of scheduled sessions and only five substitutions
out of 42 scheduled speakers. The team exercise on the
first day '.helped to get the students interacting with each
other, and the first evening session with the MAG Panel
generated much discussion which further coalesced the group.
Although the panel met with mixed reaction from the class,
it should be retained because it serves to bring the class
25X1A closer together in focusing on areas of concern to middle-
level officers. There were several speakers who were making
their first presentation to the course. Among these were
25X1A who substituted for Omego Ware, Director of EEO

25X1A
Programs; the then Deputy Inspector
General; goof Chie o Operations FRD/DDO; Robert
Gambino, Director of Security; and DD/OEL,
who substituted for Jim Hirsch, D/OEL. Speakers who received
the highest marks during this phase were Jack Iams, Comptroller;
Tom Yale, Director of Finance; Deputy Chief,
_/DDO; and Chief, Operations Coordination
25X1A Branch, EA/DDO. Speakers from the DDSIT generally received
low marks due to their overuse of viewgraphs, although their
evening sessions were better received.
6. Phase II went according to schedule with only one
substitution. Mr. Louis Sarris, Special Assistant for
Political-Military Affairs, replaced Robert Baraz, Director,
Office of Political-Military Affairs and Theatre Forces in
the session covering State/INR. He was not well received
due to a disorganized presentation. General Wilson, D/DCI/IC;
George Carver, D/DCI/NIO; and Col. Clinton Granger, NSC
Staff, were rated the most effective, and who

covered DIA was unanimously rated by the class as the least
effective. He did not project well and left the impression
that he was briefing under duress. The class also attended
the Agency--Guest-Speaker Program in the Auditorium to hear
Reaction to this session by the
class participants was completely negative.
7. The week and a half of Phase III consisted of a
two and one-half day field trip to Norfolk to visit CINCLANTFLT
Headquarters and 15 scheduled speakers. The DDS&T canceled
his session, and there were three substitutions but this 25X1A
phase was ver well received. OGCR/DDI, 25X1A
and Chief, Naval Operations Branch, OSR/DDI,
made very c; ective presentations on Law of the Sea and the 25X1A
Soviet Navy to set the stage for the field trip. Mr. Lou
Bley, Office of Energy Programs, Department of Commerce,
substituting for Robert Shepherd, gave a low-key presentation
on energy which was not very well received. Ble obviousl ,
had not spent much time preparing his talk.
Deputy Director of Communications, who substituted for
Deputy Comptroller, in discussing the ' Report," 25X1A
ma a an exceptionally fine presentation on a subject which 25X1A
had generated much interest during the course. All of the
outside speakers from the academic world received high marks 25X1A
from the class for their presentations of differing views
and challenging ideas on subjects of current and major
interest. Carl Hemmer, Office of Population, AID, and
25X1A were particularly
effective in lively discussions with the class.
8. The field trip to Norfolk, Virginia, to visit
CINCLANTFLT Headquarters, went very well in the view of the
staff. The Navy did a commendable job in arranging a two-
day tour that covered several areas of interest. The visit
to the USS Mount Whitney, the SEAL and UDT demonstrations,
and the briefings on COMSUBLANT and SOSUS systems were the
n most effective parts of the visit. Class reaction to the
~y trip was lukewarm, however. Some of this can be laid to the
accommodations. In general I feel that Midcarreerists have
come to expect flying trips out of town to some exotic or
mode of transportation, chartered Metro bus, and the overnight
disappointment in having to visit such a mundane location as
?Iorfolk.
Problems
9. There were no major problems associated with the
running of this class.

Summary of Class Reaction
10. The overall reaction of the class participants to
the course was favorable. The opportunity to discuss
problems and issues with top Agency management in the
informal environment of the I" and the association with
other members of the class were considered to be the high
points of the course. The individual student presentations
were considered to be especially meaningful and valuable
both from the standpoint of content and the stimulation of
discussion among the class members.
11. On a scale of 1 to 7, Phase I evaluations ranged
from 3 to 7 with an average of 5.1. Phase II evaluations
ranged from 3 to 5 with an average of 4.6, and the field
trip evaluations ranged from 2 to 6 with an average of 4.0.
The Phase III evaluations ranged from 2.5 to 7 with an
average of 4.7. The overall class evaluation was 5.1.

MIDCAREER COURSE
The Midcareer Course was started in 1963 to provide
an opportunity for promising, middle-level officers to
broaden their professional horizons. The Course has
become well-known throughout the Agency as an important
aspect of career development as well as a forum for the
exchange of views between senior managers from many com-
ponents of CIA and course participants.
COURSE OBJECTIVES
Midcareer Course members are expected to:
1.
Gain a fairly detailed understanding of
the Agency. its components and issues of
current concern to Agency management.
2.
Achieve a broad grasp of the other elements
of the Intelligence Community and the policy
making process.
3.
Obtain insight into selected national
international developments that bear
the U.S. foreign intelligence effort.
and
on
PHASES
The Midcareer Course is divided into three phases
which in succession emphasize each of the three objectives.
You should, however, keep in mind that the range of subject
matter covered in each of the phases contributes to the
attainment of all three objectives.

PHASE I---THE AGENCY
The Course opens with an examination of the organization, mission,
role, and functions of the Central Intelligence Agency. Most of
you have spent your careers in one Directorate, some in one office
or division, and even a"few in one branch; therefore, our objective
in this Phase is to open up the Agency to your critical inspection,
to broaden your perspectives on the operations of other offices
and Directorates, and to offer you new insights into how your job
relates to the larger picture of the intelligence process.
0845-0900. Course Administration
Block I--Mutual Perceptions:
The Agency and Us
In the first Block of this Phase you will consider how you, as
Midcareerists, see yourselves as employees and how you view the
Agency. You will have an opportunity to discuss mutual problems
and to suggest solutions with your classmates and you will also
have an opportunity to discuss management problems with a panel
from the Management Advisory Group. Finally, those officers
concerned with the Agency's legal, legislative and media relation-
ships will, discuss their perceptions of the problems that face
the Agency today.
0910-1200 Team Exercise: Midcareerist Obstacles
This team exercise is designed to bring our collective thoughts,
as a class, to bear on problems that we have individually
perceived at one time or another. We want to identify and
clarify obstacles that intrude upon individual career develop-
ment or on the realization of Agency missions. We will then
seek to formulate or suggest ways of overcoming them. The
exercise should surface and bring into focus shared individual
concerns and concerns about the Agency that we may explore
throughout the entire five weeks.
