Scope:

This course is a Joint Logistics Commander's initiative. The Director for Logistics, J-4, The Joint Staff, is the proponent. The course is 10 academic days long and is unclassified (no security clearance required). The JLC focuses on theater-level joint logistics operations by preparing military and civilians to function in assignments that involve joint logistics planning, interservice and multinational logistics support and joint logistics in a theater of operations. To accomplish this, the JLC integrates component functional skills and knowledge through the study of strategy, doctrine, theory, programs, and processes. The JLC provides the opportunity for students to develop the attributes, perspectives, and insights necessary to manage logistics at the operational level of war. The course includes a number of guest instructors from combatant commands and agencies. All material is non-testable. Students receive a CD-ROM at the end of the course with a copy of all the presentations presented.

This course is releasable to students from all requesting foreign countries with the following restrictions: rank of Major or above; GS12 or above: be assigned to, or have orders to be assigned to, a joint assignment.
