SIGNIFICANT ITEMS None II. OTHERS A. As a result of the position taken by the Registrar on the use of appropriate in-house language facilities when ble DDP/TO was called by NE; Division concerning; training for three DDE' officers. This was training originally scheduled for 0 until FSI decided to require six months of domestic training before allowing personnel to go to 0 At 25X1 this point the Registrar pushed use of our own facility. Based (he was in complete accord with our position, i.e., use oz in-rnou.:se capability and the ensuing economy), the Registrar has authorized FSI training and has been advised of the reason for such The Registrar has denied a request for enrollment in the approval. "Total Immersion Program" as not being an accept- able program. We are presently negotiating with FE concerning 25X1 Training. The Division desires the "native cr~anker" FI program in lieu of. an internal course to be given by B. has obtained permission from the Brookings Institution to postpone for one month (to 1 August 1965) the starting date for his Federal Executive Fellowship. This was done, according to statement, "in view of the delay occasioned by the decision to seek Canadian approval of my proposed study of Quebec ;3enaratism." He was assured by Fordyce Luikart that Brookings is quite flexible in this respect. xuUs fed ir? ^ aato nattc ~,~ tto~np,t^~~in att~ d~..~,:Atit atiaA Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/10/30: CIA-RDP78-06096A000200030016-0 CONFIDENTIAL Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/10/30: CIA-RDP78-06096A000200030016-0 IMP, SUBJECT: Weekly Activities Report No. 17 (cont.) C. Early in the week we received conies of revised Entrance-on-duty Training. Desired changes reflected in this revision include: (1) An unambiguous stipulation that EOD training is required of all new employees and, (2) explicit assignment to the Office of Personnel of responsibility for sched- uling new employees in EOD training. Regulatory provisions per- taining to Assessment and Evaluation Staff testing have been removed from 0 and now appear in 0 The revised EOD Training 25X1 regulation has special significance for the Registrar Staff/TR in that we will have to monitor attendance of all professional employees in Introduction to Intelligence and Introduction to Communism--an area where there has been evidence of slippage in the past. D. (CT) has been approved by Col. White as the CIA nominee for the Institute of Defense Analyses (IDA) Degree Program in Systems Analysis. CIA was advised by telephone that our memo had been received and that a CIA candidate would be welcome. No correspondence in response to our memo has been received. I visited IDA and discussed the program with B. Gen. S. F. Giffen, (USAF Ret.) who is Director of the Program. He was not aware, until my visit, of CIA's interest in participating in the Program. He explained the Program in more detail and suggested I contact Captain Creamer (USN) who is action officer for the Program. Capt. Creamer directed. me to Mr. Pat Parker in the Office of the Asst. Sec. of Defense, Comptroller. From their office I was contacted by 25X1 nated action officer on our request so that, having contacted Mr. we are now on target and waiting for the papers on to be submitted by BPAM. T. Mr. Mel Wachs, CSC Office of Career Development, visited. us on 1 July bringing with him Mr. Emery Link of the University of Oklahoma. The purpose of the visit was to deliver brochures and dis- cuss the University of Oklahoma's new program on Governmental Study on which I reported following a 13 May meeting at the Civil Service Commission. I have attached for your information some material on the program which I believe is unique and worthy of possible consid- eration as a part of the Mid-Career Program. uAVAYr tt S E T Exc#ttc f14+YtiwnAC#iikif di tl;; a 8nfi1; il i Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/10/30: CIA-RDP78-06096A000200030016-OW Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/10/30: CIA-RDP78-06096A000200030016-0 SUBJECT: Weekly Activities Report No. 17 (cont.) F. I have advised. the Civil Service Commission that I am to be its point of contact on the Summer Employees program. Mr. Wilt Dickerson of the Commission agreed to release CIA from the roster requirement, but is hopeful that we will send some of our summer employees to the two general meetings to be held at the Sheraton-Park Hotel and at the White House. CSC will send identifi- cation cards for us to use for this purpose. G. On 30 June 1965 we submitted a summary statement of activities of the Registrar Staff for use of the DD/TR in briefing senior officials of the National Security Agency. H. In a post-deadline communique, DDS&T requested six additional spaces (total of 12) in courses to be offered in FY 66 at the Kings Point Executive Seminar Center. This brings our grand total of slots desired by all Components up to 39. We will be fortunate if CIA receives the 14 spaces officially requested. In this third year of Agency participation in the Kings Point program it is clear that the Training Selection Board will really be in the business of choosing the best nominees for these Seminars. I. On Tuesday, 29 June 1965,1 attended the 25X1 eight-hour "PERT Orientation-Middle management" given by DOD's PERT Orientation and Training Center in downtown Washington. 0 25X1 reported that the exposure, though worthwhile, did not quite achieve the depth that he had expected. In fact, the Orientation did not provide much beyond the insights already gained through general professional reading and the films recently shown in the Agency. Copies of a booklet, PERT GUIDE FOR MANAGEMENT USE, have been distributed to OTR School and Staff Chiefs and to other senior 25X1 officials having a likely interest in the subject. J. Helen and I were dinner guests at home on 29 June. He is the DIA Chief of Staff. He told me that the new unit occupying quarters on the first floor of 1000 N. Glebe was the DOD Attache Support Staff. This staff will provide support to the DOD Attache System which was activated on 1 July 1965. He sug- gested that I drop in and get acquainted.
