At a farewell cocktail party for DIA Chief 25X1 25X1 of Staff, told me that Lt. Gen. Carrol was unusually pleased with the letter from Admiral Raborn concerning Project HELPFUL. A.

Raborn's letter was appended to each. All con- cerned are pleased with the outcome of Project HELPFUL and DIA is al- 4ady planning for the May offering. in a posi- tion where he can ensure that school facilities in the building are not overlooked.

As a result of 25X1 our talk, plans to register at Syracuse University for the spring term. D. The Office of Logistics' Training Officer called to com- mend for her "outstanding" efforts in arranging for OL per- sonnel to attend courses in "Naval Contract Negotiations.

They now plan to charge for student parking. 0asked whether or not parking for National Interdepartmental Seminar Students could be paid for from External Train- ing Funds. The Government Employees Training Act permits us to pay for such expenses related to external training. As a matter of policy, for local external training, we have not paid parking expenses in the past although we have had inquiries on such reimbursement. The administra- tive details of handling such reimbursements would make it next to im- possible to handle these. In the case of the NIS, it could be handled in our contract with FSI. I believe we can best be guided in this matter by learning what other (USIA, AID, DOD, etc.) NIS participants are going to do. G. Reference was made in an earlier Weekly Report of NPIC's plans to arrange with the Department of Defense Computer In- stitute (DODCI) for the presentation of the DODCI Senior Executive Course exclusively for NPIC. DODCI has now agreed to put on two courses, one in January and one in May. NPIC has offered OTR and Computer Services one slot each in each running of the course. I am less concerned about NPIC's unilateral action in arranging this training than I am in learning that NPIC has also been directly enrolling students in the DODCI courses, so that no record of such training appears in our Agency Training Records. We can and have arranged such special training for other components. Fortunately, DODCI is doing this for NPIC on a quid pro quo basis and no monies are involved although until I asked this question, no one had thought of where the money was to come from if finances were involved. Assuming DTR prior approval of a training program, external training funds could be obligated for such training. H.

One week seminar in Programming, Planning, and Budgeting for line operators and others who need to know, grade GS-14 and above. Will be offered every 4 - 6 weeks. 3. Specialized one week program for budget officers, grade GS- 13 and above, who are working with PPB. 4. Three-week Monterey-type course for professionals and their supervisors in PPB, grade GS-13 and above. This course will be designed primarily for civilian agencies (in contrast to the Monterey course which is oriented more in the direction of the military). After discussing these proposed courses with Mr. John Clarke, we called and informed him that our estimate (on the liberal side, as requested by of CIA annual participation is as follows: 1. Orientation Course -- 100 2. One-week Seminar -- 25 3. Specialized One-Week Program -- 50 4. Three-Week Course -- 20 We asked to give us all the detailed information available on these courses. as soon as possible after they are approved so we can fully inform all interested components of the Agency. I. Except for one opening in AIB, the Office of the Registrar is at TO strength. We have had quite a bit of movement this fall and tht,se has resulted in a slow down until those newly assigned have mastered the new assignment. Our backlog, for this reason, is somewhat larger than it has been but all are working hard to again catch up and maintain the status quo. OTR/PO has advised that it is unlikely that our remaining slot will be filled until after New Year's. J. appears to be quite pleased with the prospects of her new job in She has found an apartment and will. move to mid-January. K. The Staff of the Office of the Registrar wishes for All in OTR a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. 1 Excluded f ;"l r stu5Itic e?6~4`?' - da rr n~ and Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2009/11/06: CIA-RDP78-06096A000200040004-2 .~dE!1'%_ -' .

SIGNIFICANT ITEMS II. OTHERS None A. Two OTR publications were distributed in. the Agency: The December OTR Bulletin and the six-month projection of courses. Already we have had instructors call in changes in dates of courses. There will be others. We will list those we have for the January OTR Bulletin in addition to an announcement in a Special Bulletin. Two Special Bulletins were sent to PSD for publication: One (No. 25-65) to announce the installation?i~.nd general procedures for use of the two Craig Readers, which OTR w~11 maintain in the language laboratory at Headquarters. The second (No. 26-65) to notify Training Officers of the availability of cash advances to employees who are ap- proved for Agency sponsorship of their attendance in courses given at local schools. The text of the announcement of the Spring Semester of the Off-Campus Program was submitted to the O/DTR for approval and signature. The announcement is to be a Headquarters Employee Bulletin. B. Unless informed by OD/OCS to the contrary, the basic material for completing the report on EOD training, which we have agreed to do for will be completed by OCS by 7 January. This will g ve AIB two days (10 and 11 January) to do some additional manual work. We plan to give the report to Mr. on 12 January.

Ordinarily the cut-off date for information on training that is to appear in the January print-out of the Agency Training Record is the week of 20 December. Operations Division, OCS, has given us a much-needed extension of three weeks to prepare the information for computer input. D. Arrangements have been made with C/Headquarters Training/OS/TR to set up a briefing on the DDP for who will attend the February-June session of the Armed Forces Staff College. Paul was originally registered in the recent CSR. 25X1 E. EOD to the Intelligence Produc- tion Staff/IS/OTR, was given a briefing on the organization of OTR and the instructional and support functions of its Schools and Staffs. The briefing was on Monday, at 3 p, m. F. OP/TR is giving priority attention to our need for someone to fill the admissions position in AIB. How- ever, she holds out not much hope for any positive action until after 3 January. III. P ERSONNEL The Registrar Staff is "officially" saying good-bye to this afternoon.
