Qualified officers of the Army Medical Department and Chaplain Corps will be considered for attendance at resident Intermediate Level Education courses by a board that meets June 8-24.
A separate board will meet Aug. 4-5 to consider Judge Advocate General's Corps officers for ILE attendance. The zone of eligibility and other board details will be announced later this spring.
Officers selected by the June board attend courses at the Command and General Staff College, Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, and other locations during academic year 2017-18. Students will incur a two-year service obligation upon graduation or termination from a resident course.
Army Medical Department officers will be considered for ILE without regard to year group affiliation if they meet these requirements:
- Offices of the Nurse Corps, Medical Service Corps, Medical Specialist Corps and Veterinary Corps must be in the ranks of promotable captain or above, and have fewer than 14 years (168 months) of active federal service on Sept. 30, 2016. Waivers are not authorized.
- Medical Corps and Dental Corps promotable captains and above are eligible through 15 years of active federal service. Waivers are authorized.
- All officers must have credit for completion of the Captain Career Course.
Chaplain Corps officers will be considered for ILE without regard to year group affiliation if they meet these requirements:
- Be in the ranks of major or promotable captain, and have not received two previous considerations for resident ILE attendance.
- Have not graduated from a nonresident ILE course, and have not participated in the Advanced Civil Schooling program.
Special Branch ILE boards no longer consider officer requests for constructive credit. Such requests should be routed through an officer chain of command to the appropriate career management branch.
Officer evaluation reports submitted for the June board must be received in the Evaluations Branch of the Human Resources Command no later than June 1.
Code 9 "complete the record" reports are optional for officers who meet the requirements of Army Regulation 623-3 (Evaluation Reporting System) and have a "thru date" of May 9, 2016.
