Our Courses

Overview
The Civilian Education System (CES) is a progressive and sequential leader development program that provides enhanced educational opportunities for Army Civilians throughout their careers. Army Civilians will become multi-skilled, agile leaders of the 21st Century who personify the Warrior Ethos in all aspects, from warfighting support, to statesmanship, to enterprise management.
CES provides multiple levels of Civilian development to include:
Delivery Methods
Our course delivery methods include distributed learning (DL), resident instruction, and blended learning – a mixture of both DL and resident instruction. Our DL courses are available for all as self-development.
Funding
Most permanent Army Civilians and Local National employees are centrally funded — the Army pays for your tuition, travel, and per diem centrally. It does not come out of your unit budget. Military members, term and temporary employees, and non-Department of the Army employees are funded through their own organizations.
CES Underpinnings
The major underpinnings of CES are:
- Student Centered — Focuses on the transfer of knowledge using the Army's Lifelong Learning Philosophy, with the emphasis on leader development.
- Problem Based — Provides students with real-world issues and problems they will encounter as direct or indirect leaders.
- Experiential — Allows students to practice new skills in an environment that minimizes risk, encourages participation, and offers immediate feedback.
- Inquiry Based Learning — Focuses on questioning, critical thinking, and problem solving.
