SUBJ/CHIEF PETTY OFFICER INDOCTRINATION COURSE (CPOIC)//
POC/D. A. CASH/ITCM/LEAD11122/LOC:CNET/TEL:850-452-8100//
 
RMKS/1.  THE CPO INDOCTRINATION PROCESS PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN THE
TRANSITION TO CPO BY DEVELOPING AND REINFORCING THE FOLLOWING CORE
COMPETENCIES IN OUR NAVY'S NEWEST CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS:
    (A) LEADING SAILORS AND APPLYING THEIR SKILLS TO TASKS THAT
ENABLE MISSION ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR THE U.S. NAVY
    (B) DEVELOPING ENLISTED AND JUNIOR OFFICER SAILORS
    (C) COMMUNICATING THE CORE VALUES, STANDARDS AND INFORMATION OF
OUR NAVY THAT EMPOWER SAILORS TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN ALL THEY ATTEMPT
    (D) SUPPORTING WITH LOYALTY THE ENDEAVORS OF THE CHAIN OF
COMMAND THEY SERVE AND THEIR FELLOW CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS WITH WHOM
THEY SERVE. ONE SIGNIFICANT COMPONENT OF THIS PROCESS IS THE CPOIC
THAT IS CONDUCTED LOCALLY FOR NEWLY-SELECTED CHIEF PETTY OFFICERS.
THIS SERIES OF LESSONS COMPLEMENTS THE OTHER INDOCTRINATION
ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT BY CHIEFS' MESSES.
 
2.  THE CPOIC HAS UNDERGONE A MAJOR REVISION THIS YEAR TO UPDATE ITS
 
SUBJECT MATTER AND TO BETTER SUPPORT THE OVERALL OBJECTIVES OF THE
CPO INDOCTRINATION PROCESS.  ENDORSED BY THE MCPON, THE UPDATED
COURSE MATERIAL WAS DISTRIBUTED VIA CD-ROM TO ALL ATTENDEES AT THE
RECENT NAVY-WIDE CMC CONFERENCE.  A CD-ROM CONTAINING THE REVISED
COURSE WAS ALSO MAILED TO ALL COMMANDS ON 16 JUL 01.  ADDITIONALLY,
THE COURSE MATERIAL IS AVAILABLE FOR VIEWING AND DOWNLOADING AT
CNET'S WEB SITE (WWW.CNET.NAVY.MIL) UNDER "PROFESSIONAL
DEVELOPMENT."
 
3.  QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS REGARDING THE CPOIC MATERIALS MAY BE
DIRECTED TO THE CNET POC LISTED ABOVE.
