 EXECUTIVE
SEMINAR
IN
NATIONAL
AND
INTERNATIONAL
AFFAIRS
 TIE PURPOSE
OF
THE SEMINAR:
ADVANCED PROFESSIONAL TRAINING
The Executive Seminar in National and Inter-
national Affairs is the most advanced training pro-
gram available to senior career officials of the United
States Government. The ten-months program has
been conducted annually since 1958 by the Foreign
Service Institute of the Department of State.
The Seminar is designed to provide an intensive
program of executive development for senior officials,
most of whom have served abroad and expect further
foreign assignments. The curriculum stresses the in-
terrelationship between foreign and domestic policy.
Seminar Members study political, economic, social,
regional and cultural trends in the United States, re-
lating them to international issues and questions of
national security. This is done through extensive
reading, the preparation of Case Studies, in-house dis-
cussions, and by meetings with prominent academics,
public officials, businessmen, labor leaders, journalists
and Americans from all walks of life.
The purpose of the Seminar is thus to ensure
that our top career officials who deal primarily with
foreign policy and national security have a compre-
hensive understanding of their own country. This
will enable them to represent American interests
abroad more effectively and to take domestic atti-
tudes into account more accurately in pursuing a for-
eign policy which meets our national interest.
The Twenty-fourth Executive Seminar has twen-
ty-seven (27) Members, sixteen (16) of whom are
senior Foreign Service Officers. The others are from
the four uniformed Services, the Central Intelligence
Agency, the United States Information Agency, the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Agency for Inter-
national Development and the Department of Agricul-
tu re.
