Appendix A
Master Training Plan (MTP) - Competencies

STRUCTURE OF APPENDIX A.   This portion of the MTP identifies the required competencies for CP-35 (Intelligence) careerists. The competencies are divided into seven competency groups representing the two Career Tracks, the Technical (Common/Core) Track and the Supervisory/Managerial Track, and the five Intelligence career program areas of: Collection/ Operations, Production/Analysis, Security Countermeasure/Counterintelligence, Education/Training, and Intelligence Combat Development. Competencies in each group are further divided into Subgroups. Subgroups help describe the full range of required competencies, help in career planning and will be used to measure attainment of an appropriate breadth of competency. Codes, such as CU.1 for Writing competency, are assigned to each subgroup and competency to assist in the planning and documentation process. Many Career Areas also have recognized Specialties, that is a recognized line of work within the Career Area. For instance, Information Security is a Specialty in the Security Countermeasures/CI Career Area. Frequently, but not always, the Specialties are recognized in DCIPS/CIPMS Army Occupational Guides or Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Classification Standards with separate titles or titling practices.

COMPETENCY REQUIREMENTS.

By Career Track. All Technical Track careerists must attain Common/Core competencies in Group 1, Common/Core, but not those in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Track. All those in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Track (i.e., supervisors and supervisors of supervisors [managers]) must develop Supervisory/Managerial competencies in Group 2, as well as the competencies in Group 1, Common/Core, that are not repeated/restated in Group 2. Specifically, CU. 3 Computer Skills, CU.4, Staff Work, CU.7 Security Precepts, Requirements and Procedures and all the competencies in the Organizational/Environment (CE) Subgroup and all the competencies in the Functional/Substantive (CF) subgroup, are required of those in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Path as well as those competencies found in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Path, Group 2.

Technical Track Requirements	Supervisory/Managerial Track Requirements
Common/Core Competencies Career Program Area Competencies (One or more of Five Career Areas)	Supervisory/Managerial Competencies Common/Core Competencies listed below: CU.3 Computer Skills, CU.4 Staff Work CU.7 Security Precepts, Requirements and procedures CE. All Competencies CF. All Competencies Career Program Area Competencies (One or more of Five Career Areas)

By Career Area, Subgroup and Specialty. Each Career Program member (careerist) will additionally fall in at least one of the five career areas of Career Program 35, depicted in Groups 3 - 7, and is responsible for also attaining those competencies. Please note that the competencies in Group 6, Education/Training, reflect only intelligence-related competencies. Careerists in that Career Area are also required to develop appropriate competencies specified in Career Program 32, Training. Many of the competency groups and subgroups are further divided or annotated by specialty. Where Specialties are indicated and apply, careerists are responsible for just the competencies that are linked to them.

Language Competency Requirements. Competency in a foreign language and/or area studies could be required of many careerists in CP-35 regardless of Career Area, Track, Level or Specialty. Language requirements will be added by the supervisor as appropriate.

STANDARDS OF COMPETENCY/PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATION.
Careerists must attain a significant breadth as well as depth of competency (i.e., professionalism) in order to be recognized/certified as an Army professional in their Career Track, Area, Specialty (if appropriate) and Level. Careerists are responsible for attaining the applicable competencies listed in Appendix A as well as those required of their present position.

Standards for Individual Competencies. The standards for attaining an individual competency are defined below and are equally applicable to all competencies whether from the Common/Core Group of the Technical Career Track, the Supevisory/Mangerial Group of the Supervisory/Managerial Track or from one of the five functional Career Areas. Careerists will develop and be evaluated on their attainment of competencies at each Career Level. These standards are an extract of the Grade Band Definitions for Professional-Administrative Work Not Otherwise Covered by a Specific Army Occupational Guide found in Appendix G, titled "Guide for Grade-Band Classification Within CIPMS Career Paths" of the Guide to Classifying GS Position in CIPMS. In some cases, the full definition contained in that Guide will be needed to determine whether a competency has been attained. The appropriate grade band definition for an applicable Army Occupational Guide may also be used.

• Developmental (Grades 5 to 9): General knowledge of and expertise with the principles, concepts and/or methodologies of the competency as attained from education or basic/familiarization/overview courses and/or initial on-the-job orientation/training and closely supervised assignments. Becomes qualified to advance to intermediate courses and perform a range of routine assignments under general supervision relying on the competency.
  
  
• Full Performance/Supervisor (Grades 10 to 13): Thorough, complete understanding of and expertise in the principles, concepts and/or methodologies of the competency as attained from education and intermediate courses, and in some cases advanced courses, as well as successful experience in a variety of complex assignments, under normal supervision, that require the competency. Able to lead and guide lower-graded personnel.
  
  
• Expert/Manager (Grades 14 to 15): Mastery of the principles, concepts and/or methodologies of subject/competency and expertise as attained from the most advanced training and graduate level education, such as IC or Joint education and/or training, as well as significant success in performing the most demanding assignments requiring the competency. Able to experiment and apply new developments in the competency to problems/tasks not susceptible to treatment by accepted methods.
  
  
• Senior Expert/Executive (Grades above 15): Mastery of the subject/competency - a recognized expert within DOD and/or the IC.

Army Standards for Certification of a Career Level/Professional Certification. Careerists may seek Army certification from their major command CPM upon attainment of the required breadth and depth of competency for a Career Level. To be considered to have attained sufficient breadth and depth of competency for a Career Level a careerist must first have been evaluated by appropriate officials (immediate supervisor and second line supervisor/manager and/or ACPM) to have reasonably attained the appropriate Career Level for a preponderance (66% or more) of the competencies required for each of the Subgroups in Appendix A applicable for the careerist's Career Track, Area, and Specialty, if appropriate, as well as for those competencies required of the present position. The appropriate MACOM CPM, or equivalent designated official, will then review and make a determination. Professional certification will reflect achievement of a sufficient breadth, in addition to depth, of experience, education, training, etc. appropriate for the careerist's present Career Level in the Army.

GROUP 1 - COMMON/CORE COMPETENCIES (C)/TECHNICAL CAREER TRACK.
This group of competencies is for all careerists in the Technical Career Track. After each competency, the Supervisory/ Managerial track (Group 2) competencies that are similar have been identified in the parenthesis. This is to help identify the relationship between the Career Tracks. Careerists in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Track are also responsible for the following Group 1 competencies because they do not have an analogue in Group 2: CU. 3 Computer Skills, CU.4, Staff Work, CU.7 Security Precepts, Requirements and Procedures and all the competencies in the Organizational/ Environment (CE) Group and all the competencies in the Functional/Substantive (CF)Group are required of those in the Supervisory/Managerial Career Path as well as those in the Tech.
