U.S. Army Company & Field Grade Officer Leadership Development

The Company and Field Grade Officer Leadership Development course is an annual week-long event, meant to serve as a mentorship and leadership seminar. Attendees are Army medical officers in the ranks of O1-O5 and WO1-CW4 - and now E7 to E8, from across the United States Army Reserve , National Guard, and Active Duty. CFGOLD is meant to connect, mentor, and educate AMEDD officers on their journey into leadership positions and career development. The training covers a broad spectrum of subject areas including leadership, the Inspector General’s functions, the Staff Judge Advocate’s functions, the Army Professional Management Command (APMC) Credentialing and training, AMEDD specific recruiting and career progression, personnel, operations/training, and Army funding procedures - but that's only a small portion! Teaching methodologies include formal briefings, small group classroom discussion, and practical exercises. The greatest values of the course are the open and close engagements with Senior Leaders from across Army medicine and the many opportunities to network with fellow students and organizational leadership. The value and experiences found at CFGOLD is unmatched.
