Beginning in FY 2019 the Logistics Reserve Component Captains Career Course structure will be changing.
Previously the Phase I of the course was broken down by basic branch with separate course numbers for TC, QM, and OD. This has created confusion and has led to long wait times for officers attempting to get into their specific branch’s course. All three of these courses taught the same curriculum for a long period of time but the structure created confusion across the different components. Phase II was a distance learning requirement that consisted of the Support Operations Course Phase I and the Military Decision Making Process Blackboard Course. The Support Operations Course was taken from ATRRS in summer of 2017 and course requirements updated. The DL requirement was then changed to the Sustainment Learning Assessment available through the Army Learning Management System. It was not reflected in ATRRS and created confusion again. Phase III was the final resident phase and was the only portion of the course that was listed as multi-functional.
In order to eliminate confusion and frustration and to streamline the processes for enrolling and completing the RC-CCC the course structure changes were made and approved for implementation in FY 2019. Those changes are as follows:
- 1) The course is now 2 x two week resident phases completed at Fort Lee, VA.
- 2) There are no longer branch specific courses that contribute to the completion of the RC-CCC. Students should not be registered for those classes in ATRRS for FY 2019 or beyond.
- 3) Both phases can be found in ATRRS for FY 2019 under the course number 9-00-C23 (RC). They are listed as Phase I and Phase II and MUST be completed in order.
- 4) There is no longer a DL phase of the course in ATRRS. However, the Sustainment Learning Assessment must still be completed but is now a prerequisite for attendance at Phase I (certificates will be checked prior to students being accepted at the Phase I Welcome Briefs).
- 5) As has been the RC-CCC practice, a DA Form 1059 will only be provided to those that complete both phases of the RC-CCC.
The right direction at this point is to give up on the MDMP course all together. We have had multiple issues with the same problem and have gotten very little tech support to rectify the problem or even propose a work around. My advice to you at this point is to take the Sustainment Learning Assessment available through ALMS. It will soon replace in ATRRS the Support Operations Course Phase I and MDMP as the DL Phase II. In fact if you try to register to take SOC Phase I now it is not even available.
Below are the steps for taking the SLA through ALMS:
- 1) Students log in to https://www.lms.army.mil using CAC or AKO username and password.
- 2) From the account home page select "Search" from left column of options.
- 3) In the search bar type in "Sustainment Learning Assessment". Click "Search" button.
- 4) First option that populates is "LOG-C3 / Sustainment Learning Assessment". (Description of the course states: The LOG-C3 / Sustainment Learning Assessment Course consists of 30 topics totaling 67.5 hours of content. The learner must progress through the 30 topics by either passing the associated pretest or reviewing the learning content and passing the posttest. Learners will receive course credit when they have successfully passed either the pretest or posttest for each of the 30 associated topics with a score of 80% or higher.)
- 5) Select "Register"
ALMS will email instructions when enrollment is complete.
Log back into ALMS. Under "Assigned Learning" select the Sustainment Learning Assessment and launch course content.
Hopefully this helps. It is much better training and much easier to actually take. Let me know if you have any questions.
You may not have received a welcome letter for the course for a variety of reasons. The most common of them are below:
- You are in a WAIT Status in ATRRS. We do not send welcome letters to those in a WAIT status because we cannot guarantee seats. Please see answer for the next question for the procedures for attempting to walk on.
- Your email in ATRRS is incorrect. We send all welcome letters to the email registered in ATRRS, which is most often the Military Email. If that is incorrect, please have your readiness/training NCO fix it.
In order for officers to be accepted as a walk-on to the course they must have orders bringing them to Fort Lee for the duration of the course and they must have those orders at the Welcome Brief on the first day of the course in order to be accepted into the class.
It is up to units and/or HRC to provide orders for officers prior to them departing for Fort Lee. Units and/or HRC assume the risk that officers may not be accepted as walk-ons to the class. In order to make informed decisions the following information may be helpful:
- The course manager cannot grant anyone a “reserved” seat in the course. ATRRS automatically enrolls them if seats are available or takes people from a wait status and rolls them into a reserved seat as seats become available.
- Most classes of the Logistics Reserve Component Captains Career Course have officers that do not show for the start of the class.
- When officers do not show up for the class, officers who are in a wait status can be accepted into the class from a walk-on status. OMLs are developed from the wait list and those officers with the longest wait time on the list are accepted first into the class. Again in order to be accepted officers must still have orders bringing them to Fort Lee for the duration of the course.
With this information units/HRC can elect to send officers with the understanding that while there is a very strong possibility that officers will be accepted from a walk-on status, I simply cannot guarantee a seat to anyone because I simply do not know the number of no-shows before a class starts. All that being said...based off of previous classes...there have been only a few times that I have had to turn Soldiers away. Because most units are unwilling to assume the risk, there are very few that come to the Welcome Brief with orders and attempt to walk on. Those that do are usually able to attend.
Current
- Officers transferring from a non-logistics branch to logistics have two options.
- Option 1: Officers that have not completed another Captains Career Course, can attend the Logistics Reserve Component Captains Career Course at Fort Lee. Officers must complete all phases of the course in order to receive credit for the course.
- Option 2: Officers that have completed another branch’s Captains Career Course must elect to go through the Support Operations Course to receive credit for transfer. Course number is: 8A-FA90/551-f39 (MC). “Officers from non-logistics branches who have already completed a non-logistics Captains Career Course must attend this course in order to compete for a branch transfer to 90A/Logistics.” This course is managed by the Applied Logistics Studies Department. Course manger’s contact number is (804) 765-4663.
Effective 1 Oct 2018
- 1) Go onto ALMS (you can do this now as you have time) and register for and complete the Sustainment Learning Assessment. There is no registration requirement in ATRRS. It is just an ALMS course that will get you prepared for the resident phases of the Logistics Reserve Component Captains Career Course. It will actually be a required prerequisite for attendance at the first resident phase of the course. It is about 67.5 hours of training and when you're done you need to save the certificate for proof when you come to Fort Lee.
- 2) Your training NCO/Officer need to go on to ATRRS now and get you registered and reserved in one or both resident phases. The course number they need to look up for FY 2019 is 9-00-C23 (RC). When they type in that course number both phases will show up...Phase I and Phase II. There are only two phases...there is not a DL phase...the phases must be taken in order. Please ensure you read all the special instructions for both courses and understand them.
- 3) Once completed with both phases of the course you will receive a DA Form 1059 that will state that you have completed the course and are now prepared to serve in the AOC of 90A. You will then work through your S1/G1 in your state to submit the required documents to change your basic branch over to LG.
All Students at the RC-CCC are required to out process with the Transitions Office at the Soldier Support Center (Building 3400, Room 135) before departing Fort Lee, VA. During out processing, the transitions team will provide them with the supporting documentation necessary to validate getting paid for Active Duty – Training time with HRC (for USAR), and for their units (NG). In the event a student does not go to transitions, or loses their paperwork, please contact one of the two individuals below for assistance. The Course Manager of RC-CCC cannot validate pay or entitlements.

6.4. Contractor Training
Contractors are authorized to receive training when the course(s) is/are identified in the contract Performance Work Statement (PWS) and is/are required to fulfill the contracted service requirement. Contractors may be trained in rules, practices, procedures, and/or systems that are unique to the employing agency and essential to performance of assigned duties.
a. Reimbursement. Contractors attending Army training will not be charged a tuition fee for mandatory training. Contractors may only be trained in skills they are not required to bring to the job, such as, command unique rules, practices, procedures and/or systems that are essential for the contractor’s satisfactory contract performance. This type of training is considered mandatory/required and will be identified in the contract. The cost of mandatory/required training is the full responsibility of the Army/command. The command requiring or providing the training may not seek payment from the contractor.
b. Scheduling. Contractor attendance in a military course requires a reservation in the ATRRS. The university’s registrar office will schedule contractors for attendance in ASU courses. When coordinating contractor training, the COR will provide a SF-182 or equivalent information for each student. The form must identify the student, course, class number, and class dates and be signed by the COR authorizing the training, certifying the training is required in order for the contractor to fulfill a Government contract.
