MEMORANDUM FOR: Deputy Director for Support
SUBJECT : Inspector General's Survey of the Office
of Training
REFERENCE : (a) Memo dtd 13 Mar 68 to DTR frm DD/S,
same subj.
(b) Memo dtd 8 Mar 68 to DD/S frm Ex DirComp,
same subj.
In response to your memorandum of 13 March, and after careful con-
sideration of the Inspector General's recommendations as well as the
Executive Director's comments in reference (b), I recommend the follow-
ing as your response to the Executive Director:
"1. In reviewing the Executive Director's clarifying memo-
randum of 8 March, I concur in principle with the Inspector
General's Recommendation No. 5 concerning the need for periodic
reviews of the Agency training effort. In compliance with the in-
tent of the recommendation, and recognizing the responsibilities
of an already over-burdened Agency Training Selection Board, I
propose the following alternative to ensure that the Agency's total
training effort is carefully monitored:
"a. Survey all Directorates to ascertain that the Office
of Training has appropriate information on all training con-
ducted within these Directorates. (Substance of an initial
survey covering training objectives and specialized training
is charted as an attachment. )
"b. Name an ad hoc working group of appropriate OTR
personnel, the senior training officer of the Directorate con-
cerned, and the training officer of the component concerned
to examine each training program for suitability of objectives,
substance, training methods employed, the source and quali-
fications of instructors, and the quality of the instruction.
"c. Request components to coordinate the concept and
development of new courses with OTR and obtain approval of
the Director of Training before implementation.

Approved For Release 2006/11P84-00780R002100180006-6
"d. Name an ad hoc working group of OTR and component
personnel, together with the senior training officer of the Direc-
torate concerned, to conduct a yearly survey of each component's
training effort.
're. Require each component concerned to provide the
Director of Training, with approval of the respective Deputy
Director, a semi-annual report on its training activities to
include:
(1) Change in content or objectives of a given course.
(2) An evaluation to determine whether the objectives
of a course were met.
(3) Number of course offerings and number of em-
ployees trained during the six-month period.
(4) Costs of training.
"f. Submit a copy of each approved semi-annual report,
cited in para 1(e) above, to the Executive Director-Comptroller.
"2. The above procedures have the advantage of a committee
composed of officers in similar environments of actions and responsi-
bilities examining the training efforts of the components, thus assuring
a more profitable investment of time. The procedures also permit use
of OTR's School and Staff chiefs and chief instructors who have exper-
ience in developing new programs, refining objectives, evaluating per-
formance of students, applying instructional techniques and who have
been exposed to new training technological developments. Findings of
the working groups, with approval of the Deputy Directors concerned,
thus will provide an umbrella review of the complete training effort.
