Intellectual Firepower: A Review of Professional Military Education in the U.S. Department of Defense : RAND Corporation , January , 2024
From the report: "Educated, trained, and experienced military officers enable the Department of Defense (DoD) to accomplish its missions at home and abroad. All military services emphasize education as part of officer development. However, the effectiveness of officer professional military education (PME) has been questioned for the past 30 years. Concerns include the inadequacy of accountability, jointness, and responsiveness to ever-evolving DoD priorities. To gain a clearer understanding of the state of PME, Congress asked DoD to develop a broad overview of the officer PME system in Section 576 of the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act. The Office of Force Education and Training within the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Personnel and Readiness in turn asked RAND National Security Research Institute (NDRI) researchers to aid in fulfilling this request."
