Education

The Combined Arms Center synchronizes education across the force through Army University (Army U) to ensure an applicable common core throughout the Total Army, while working with the operating force to capture, understand, validate, and apply operational lessons learned to professional military education programs. US Army educational organizations help maintain a relevant, agile, and informed force for US Army and joint force commanders. The Army Operating Concept 2014: Winning in a Complex World, recognizes the imperative of creating a culture of career-long learning within the US Army that facilitates continued development of agile, adaptive, and innovative leaders who thrive in complex environments. Education is critically important because the Army educates for uncertainty. The educational development of characteristics such as critical thinking, ethical reasoning, judgment, situational understanding, and problem-solving must accompany hard tactical and technical skills acquired in training.
