Students study, practice, and apply the fundamentals of Army leadership, officership, Army values and ethics, personal development, and small-unit tactics at the platoon level. At the conclusion of this course, students are capable of planning, coordinating, navigating, motivating, and leading a squad or platoon in the execution of a tactical mission during a classroom PE, a Leadership Lab, or during a Situational Training Exercise (STX) in a field environment. Successful completion of this course will help prepare students for success at the ROTC Cadet Summer Training (CST), which they attend in the summer after their junior year at Fort Knox, KY. This course includes reading assignments, homework assignments, small group assignments, briefings, case studies and practical exercises, a mid-term exam, and a final exam. Students receive systematic and specific feedback on their leader attributes values and core leader competencies from their instructor and other ROTC cadre and MSL IV Cadets who will evaluate them using the ROTC Leader Development Program (LDP) model.
