Description
THIS COURSE RETIRED AND REPLACED BY PMT 4010 IN FY21.
This course is designed to improve DoD acquisition outcomes by strengthening the analytical, critical thinking and decision-making skills of acquisition leaders. Applying the proven doctrine of “train as you fight,” learners analyze acquisition case studies representing contemporary acquisition program challenges and dilemmas; they learn by doing through engagement in experiential based exercises and simulations; they apply a broad cross section of knowledge of the acquisition environment and experience; and they deepen their understanding of acquisition principles and practices through peer and instructor mentoring and coaching. The themes of this course include learning and exercising four frameworks, six program leadership skills and four self and team tools to support improve acquisition outcomes.

  • Minimum Grade Level for Students: GS-14 or equivalent (Civilian); O-5 or selected for promotion to O-5 (Military).
  • ACAT I or II program managers should attend the course prior to beginning their assignment.
  • Industry participants with equivalent PM experience are also sought.
  • PMT 401 is a pre-requisite for PMT 402. This course in combination with PMT 402 satisfies the statutory training required for program executive officers, deputy program executive officers, and program managers (PM)/deputy program managers (DPM) of ACAT I, IA, and II programs. PMs and DPMs should attend this course prior to beginning their assignment.
