For Civilian Employees

This page serves as a resource for our dedicated civilian workforce and provides essential information for new hires joining the USAG West Point team.

For more than 230 years, Army Civilians have proudly served alongside Soldiers as an essential part of the Total Army team. Members of the Army Civilian Corps support Army missions around the world and provide critical expertise that enables readiness and mission success across all functional areas.

As the Army’s missions have evolved and become increasingly complex, so have the roles and responsibilities of Army Civilians. Yesterday, today, and into the future, Army Civilians remain an integral component of the Total Army Force and are committed to supporting Soldiers, Families, and the Nation.
