W. Va. Code R. § 141-31-7-5 – ARMY CORRESPONDENCE COURSES

Current through Register Vol. XXXIX, No. 11, March 18, 2022

a.

The Army Correspondence Course
Program (ACCP) provides progressive education opportunities through
correspondence study for WVARNG officers. This type of military
educational study has proven to be ideal for WVARNG officers who
cannot take advantage of resident courses due to their restrictive
time requirements which would take the officer away from his civilian
pursuits. Army Correspondence Courses are prepared and administered
by the various army schools and offer career development
opportunities at the Basic Branch, Advanced, USC&GSC, and the
Army, War College levels. They also offer functional correspondence
courses that cover the knowledge in a particular job assignment such
as: Motor Officer, Food Service Officer, Personnel Officer, Adjutant,
and many others concerning various assignments at troop unit levels.
These latter courses are available as an additional curriculum for
specific areas of assignment.

b.

Interchangeable programs are
available to officers whereby these courses, except those at the Army
War College, can be completed by pure correspondence study of by a
combination of correspondence study and resident training at the Army
Service schools.

c.

Applications for enrollment in Army Correspondence Courses are
prepared on DA Form 145, at the unit of assignment and forwarded
through channels to Army Correspondence Courses Programs.

d.

DA PAMPHLET 351-20 prescribes
the scope of the courses and the prerequisites for enrollment. Each
Army Service School administering the program also publishes a
catalog which further lists all courses offered by the particular
school and includes subject matter of the course, titles of each
subcourse included in the course, credit hours of each subcourse and
total credit hours for the course, and complete instructions for
completing the course. Each organizational headquarters of troop
units will obtain and have on file copies of correspondence course
catalogs from all schools which contain courses relevant to
assignments within the organization.
