Army Doctrine Reference Publication ADRP 7-0 Training Units and Developing Leaders August 2012

Army Doctrine Reference Publication (ADRP) 7-0, Training Units and Developing Leaders, augments fundamental principles discussed in Army Doctrine Publication (ADP) 7-0, Training Units and Developing Leaders. Both ADP 7-0 and ADRP 7-0 support the doctrine established in ADP 3-0 and ADRP 3-0. Army units will face a complex operational environment shaped by a wide range of threats, allies, and populations. Rapid advances in communications, weapons, transportation, information technologies, and space-based capabilities make it a challenge to just stay even with the pace of change. Because Army units face a wide mix of challenges-from strategic to tactical-they must develop leaders to conduct unified land operations anywhere in the world in any operation across the conflict continuum. Army training prepares units and leaders to be successful through challenging, realistic, and relevant unit training and leader development at home station, at the combat training centers, and in the schoolhouses. ADRP 7-0 applies to all Army leaders, including Army civilians in leadership positions. ADP 7-0 supports the implementation of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (known as NATO) standardization agreements for training. ADRP 7-0 applies to the Active Army, the Army National Guard (ARNG)/Army National Guard of the United States (ARNGUS), and the United States Army Reserve (USAR) unless otherwise stated. Terms for which ADRP 7-0 is the proponent (the authority) are indicated with an asterisk in the glossary. Definitions for which ADRP 7-0 is the proponent are printed in boldface in the text. The proponent of ADRP 7-0 is the United States Army Combined Arms Center (CAC). The preparing agencies are the Combined Arms Doctrine Directorate (CADD) and the Training Management Directorate (TMD) within CAC-Training (CAC-T). Both CADD and CAC-T are subordinate to the United States Army Combined Arms Center.
