• Training courses 120 days or less in length. Training instances may include, but are not limited to, attendance at classes, professional workshops, seminars, CES, online training. Attendance must relate directly to Human Resources and be documented as mandatory or recommended training in the CP50 ACTEDS Plan.

• Developmental assignments are our most economical and effective means of building professional credentials for Human Resource careerists.
• Developmental opportunities are designed for careerists to work in positions which establish and/or interpret policy, plans, and strategies and broaden their breadth and depth of knowledge and skills. Assignments are normally lateral assignments to positions where the individual gains skills, knowledge, and abilities other than those they currently possess. Developmental assignments can be established at all levels of the Army, i.e., ASAM&RA, G-1, ACOM/ASCC/DRUs, TRADOC and FORSCOM installations, Adjutant General School, HRC, IMCOM. These assignments will normally be no less than 30 days and no more than 3 months.
• Establishment of developmental assignments can be requested by MACOM/IRA or Activity Career Program Managers, or can be requested by individual careerists. If approved by the FCR, the developmental assignment will be announced Army-wide through MACOM/IRA CP-50 Program Managers for dissemination to CP50 careerists.
• Funding for travel and per diem are paid through CPD funds. Salary and personal benefits must be paid by either the submitting or developmental assignment activity.

The Civilian Education System (CES) is the foundation of the Army's leader development program for all Army Civilians, providing progressive and sequential education courses throughout their careers. CES is centrally funded by HQDA G-37/Training Directorate for most permanent Army Civilians, including but not limited to general schedule (GS), non-appropriated fund (NAF), local national (LN) and wage grade (WG) employees. CES leadership courses, or designated equivalent courses, are required for all Army Civilians. Employees should include attendance at the CES course for which they are eligible in their Individual Development Plans (IDP).

Employees are eligible to attend the CES course that is targeted at their grade level. GS-01 through GS-09 employees are eligible to attend the CES Basic Course; GS-10 through GS-12 employees are eligible to attend the CES Intermediate Course; and GS-13 through GS-15 employees are eligible to attend the CES Advanced Course. NOTE: All Army Civilians who were hired after 30 September 2006 are required to take the Foundation Course prior to enrolling in either of the CES courses.

More information on CES courses, as well as instructions on how to enroll can be found on the Civilian Training and Leader Development website at http://www.civiliantraining.army.mil/Pages/Homepage.aspx
