<P>54The Military Engineer l November-December l 2009 I strongly encourage all our careerists to seek out and leverage every opportunity for learning and self- development. Leader Pro?le Robert E. Slockbower, P.E., F.SAME, SES Q: What are the goals of CP-18 and how have you attempted to shape the program as FCR? The mission of CP-18 is to recruit, develop and retain a relevant, ready, di- verse and technically-pro?cient work- force to meet the needs of the Army and the nation. To accomplish this mission we have built the CP-18 pro- gram around the fundamental areas of recruiting, development and retention, which are the basis for the three CP-18 goals: recruit the best talent to serve as technical experts and leaders of the future; develop a diverse, world-class workforce with a reputation for techni- cal and leadership excellence; and cre- ate an exciting and challenging career experience that enables lifetime learn- ing and rewards technical and leader- ship excellence. Retain the best as the employer of choice. As the CP-18 FCR, I have strived to develop a strong framework based on sound business practices to facilitate the Army-wide development of our CP- 18 civilian workforce. Q: What support does CP-18 provide in obtaining advanced degrees? How important is ongoing education to the Army in terms of professional development? While several of our entry-level civil- ian career series have a positive degree requirement, this does not apply uni- formly to all job series within the ca- reer program. For those who are hired without a bachelors degree, or those who have one and are seeking a grad- uate-level degree, the career programs have a competitive academic degree program. The program allows quali?ed candidates to compete for funding to cover 100 percent of their tuition and books for Bachelor, Master, or Doctoral programs. Eligible degree programs in- clude part-time and full-time opportu- nities as well as web-based accredited programs. Obtaining advanced degrees is only a part of the career program de- velopment and retention efforts. As FCR, I strongly encourage all our careerists to seek out and leverage every opportunity for learning and self-devel- The incoming U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Director of Military Programs discusses his current responsibilities as Functional Chief Representative of CP-18, the Armys career program for engineers and scientists. Robert E. Slockbower, P.E., F.SAME, SES, will become the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Director of Military Programs in January 2010. Currently, Slockbower serves as the Functional Chief Representative (FCR) of the Armys career program for engineers and scientists, called CP-18, which is the focus of this inter- view. CP-18 encompasses most engineers and scientists in the Department of the Army and currently has more than 14,000 civil service members, most of whom are employed by USACE and the Army Installation Management Command.</p> <UL><LI><a href="http://www.stallionpublishers.com/publication/18/oigsnclgz/1/1/">Cover-Page</a></LI> <LI><a
