Leader Program which consists of platoon leader
positions identified by active Army, Army Reserve, and National
Guard units both CONUS and OCONUS. Non-SMP MSL III cadets are
assigned to the CTLT Platoon Leader program by their PMS and must
successfully complete Leader Development and Assessment Course
(LDAC) before proceeding to their assigned position. CTLT Platoon
Leader positions do not require an application. Cadets are assigned
for a period of three-weeks with CONUS units and four-weeks with
OCONUS units. Positions are allocated to each Brigade via CCIMS.
Brigades allocate positions to Battalions. Cadets receive an Officer
Evaluation Report upon completing the Platoon Leader assignment.
All CTLT positions are linked to a specific regiment
of the Leader Development and Assessment Course (LDAC). As a result,
attendance to the specific regiment is mandatory. The assigned
regiment will not be changed to accommodate personal situations.

position must complete the CTLT
