Scope:

The training curriculum for the MOWO Basic Course is centered on preparing graduates to perform critical deployment tasks at the Joint, Theater, Corps, Division, and Brigade-levels. The course begins with an in depth look at the Defense Transportation System and current Department of Defense (DoD) policies and standards governing force projection in a Joint environment. As MOWOs progress through the course, they go from understanding the overarching planning and execution principles, to building their individual and collective technical expertise, culminating in an intense and comprehensive collective exercise that places them in challenging and realistic roles at various levels in the deployment system.

Special Information:

ENVIRONMENTAL: AR 200-1 delineates TRADOC responsibilities to integrate environmental requirements across DTLOMPF and ensure all training procedures, training manuals, and training doctrine include sound environmental practices and considerations. The Army's environmental vision is to be a national leader in environmental and natural resource stewardship for present and future generations as an integral part of all Army missions. This instruction meets this standard.

SAFETY: Accidents are an unacceptable impediment to Army missions, readiness, morale, and resources. Decision makers at every level will employ risk management approaches to effectively preclude unacceptable risk to the safety of personnel and property affiliated with this course.

CONTEMPORARY OPERATING ENVIRONMENT: The learning objectives in Army training must comply with current Joint, Army, and Branch doctrine regarding the Contemporary Operational Environment (COE) and Opposing Force (OPFOR) scenarios. This instruction (POI) addresses this principle and incorporates current doctrine and lessons learned at the appropriate level, divesting of obsolescence, and implementing full spectrum operations in the COE in classrooms and training exercises.

MEDICAL SUPPORT TO TRAINING. Installation commanders and school commandants will assess and certify the adequacy of medical support to training at least annually. This responsibility is not delegable. Installation commanders and school commandants conducting high risk training shall rehearse their medical support (casualty response, evacuation, and treatment) plan at least annually, focused on responding to a training catastrophe. This instruction complies with the intent of the Army's Medical Support to Training policy.

Active Army and Reserve Component Warrant Officers, graduates of an approved Warrant Officer Candidate School.
