Spending time on your career is an investment that always pays off. Make an investment this week by reviewing the latest issue of the Army DACM Office Newsletter.
The July issue includes links, articles and profiles designed to help you identify your next developmental assignment, get a quick refresher on the requirements for your position, and stay up to date on key human capital initiatives being rolled out by the DACM Office and the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment.
It also offers first-person perspectives from a recent graduate of the Defense Civilian Emerging Leader Program and from a West Point cadet who had the opportunity to intern at PEO IEW&S. Find out the challenges they encountered, what appealed to them about the programs, and how their experiences are shaping their career trajectory.
Designed to be easy to read and to share, the newsletter also outlines the latest on the Acquisition Career Record Brief (spoiler: it won’t be around much longer), new developments in Training with Industry and the Advanced Civil Schooling programs, and upcoming deadlines for the SRPE, as well as links to key articles in the latest issue of Army AL&T magazine on ASA(ALT) data collection approaches and a DAU toolkit that streamlines acquisition decisions.
