Again, all of this is still at the proposal stage. None of the training
details will be in stone until the fall executive committee meeting in
October. ICS will be revised and expanded. IT training will be standardized
across the nation.
Perhaps it will take more than one day to provide an update on the new
program. The basic idea is that no one is going to be forced to take the
entire new LTC if they have already taken the old one -- all you will need
are the updates.
Yes, there is a detailed plan for the revisions of the LTC. Too much detail
to go into here, but rest assured that the LTC training will not be watered
down, and we have attempted to make sure that it is relevant to commanders
and their needs today.
GPH has apparently committed to eating all of the old, obsolete RR
materials just as they did the Missionettes materials two years ago. Thus,
when the new materials are available, that's all GPH is supposed to ship.
