with companies that support Army modernization priorities from multiple industries and ranging in size from small businesses to large corporations.
The Naval Postgraduate School 815 Program was established in the 2020 fiscal year for 51C noncommissioned offi- cers (NCOs) using the Advanced Civil Schooling program. Te 51C Proponent recognized the need for an advanced education opportunity for NCOs in the 51C career field. Te NPS 815 program will allow 51C NCOs to obtain a grad- uate degree in Acquisition and Contract Management while simultaneously train- ing to the Level III Defense Acquisition Workforce Improvement Act standards in contracting.

CONCLUSION The Army is replete with dedicated, talented people. It is my hope that I have provided, and will continue to provide, the senior leadership guidance, encour- agement and reassurance that allows our team to be innovative, understand and accept responsibility, and reduce a risk- averse culture. In doing so, the ultimate beneficiary of our success is the Soldier.
necessitates an acquisition human capital strategy that is oriented to build a ready, professional, diverse and integrated AAW. Tis plan is a reflection of our commitment to the AAW to develop the next generation of leaders and advance the Army acquisi- tion profession. Te updated AAW HCSP was published in October 2020.
In November 2020, the inaugural Acqui- sition Leader Assessment Program (ALAP) was held at Fort Knox, Kentucky. ALAP is the acquisition version of the Army’s Command Assessment Program (Battal- ion Commander Assessment Program and the Colonels' Command Assessment Program), which is designed specifically for acquisition command-selection list
candidates. ALAP is an assessment-driven effort to add data points to the traditional command-selection list program.
While ALAP is currently for mili- tary officers only, the goal is for civilian CSL candidates to participate in future programs.
Te Army Acquisition Corps Training With Industry (TWI) program is a one- year fellowship designed to expose officers to corporate culture, best business prac- tices and corporate decision-making processes. In fiscal year 2020, the program nearly tripled in size, going from 11 partic- ipating companies to 30. Tis expansion effort focused on pursuing partnerships
In closing, let me repeat something I have said often. Many of us in ASA(ALT) serve in uniform. Many of us in ASA(ALT) serve in civilian clothes. All of us clearly see service to this nation as a calling, demonstrating it through unwavering accomplishment of our duty despite even personal risk.
Tank you for your dedication, patriotism and example of selfless service. I am proud and honored to serve with you.
Happy New Year! Please take care of your- self and your loved ones.
