The ELRG is a collaborative effort between to help guide the development of solutions to the problems facing NCOs in today’s as well as the future’s Army. Between retired NCOs , the Active Army, and the Army Research community, using the three legged stool approach to research and development, the ELRG is an innovative approach to a collective problem.
Work directly with junior NCOs to identify the challenges they currently face while leading, training and caring for Soldiers.
Develop and field test training, tools, and job aids with NCOs in operational units using rigorous, gold standard training evaluation standards.
Work hand-in-hand with NCOs and other stakeholders to ensure that tools are immediately useful to the force.
Our goal is for NCOs with essential leader competencies that will prepare them to succeed in their current leadership role, rapidly progress in their careers, and be successful in positions of greater responsibility.
