Professional Military Education Letters

Selection to attend Noncommissioned Officer's Academy (NCOA)









Key Points to Writing
  • WRITE!!! The more you do it, the better you get.
  • Ask for HELP, the only person looking out for #1 is you.
  • The only person looking out for your airmen is YOU!
  • Use a spell checker.  F7 works real fast in MS Word.
  • Use various writing resources like Merriam-Webster Online to improve your vocabulary.

The following Example has been taken out of a Word.  If you have anything you would like to submit, please do so.  If you have found this information useful, please let me know. Everyone of these letters has taken considerable amount of time to put together.  Please treat yourself to something special from one of the ads on the page.  We will both get something out of it.  (All money gathered pays for hosting fees and domain fees.  HONESTLY, when I see money come in it also prompts me to work harder on the site.)

Dear (RANK AND LAST NAME)

Congratulations on your selection to attend the Noncommissioned Officer's Academy (NCOA). Only those NCOs who are best qualified are selected to attend the NCOA. I have picked you because you meet that criteria.

Professional Military Education is designed to provide the varied leadership skills required at each level of enlisted supervision and management throughout the Air Force. It enhances the professional development of enlisted members by strengthening their ability to lead and manage while they gain a broader understanding of the military profession.

The NCOA prepares selected NCOs to perform mid-level supervisory and management responsibilities. This objective is accomplished through the educational objectives contained in AFI 36-2301, NCO Professional Military Education. While these are the primary objectives; the staff has included several other equally important objectives. These include: fostering pride in the NCO corps, developing initiative and self-confidence, building teamwork and esprit-de-corps, and valuing honor, loyalty, and dedication to duty.

You should read your student's guide thoroughly when you receive it. Among other things it explains that you are TDY and relieved of all unit duties and details. You may contact the First Sergeant, Formal Training or the NCO Academy if you have questions not covered by the guide.

I challenge you to make the most of your time while attending the school and return prepared to put your newly acquired skills to work in your duty section and the squadron. Again, congratulations on your selection and good luck. 



                                                                                               Sincerely


                                                                                               (COMMANDER'S SIGNATURE BLOCK)

Reminder, the closing line is 5 spaces below the last line of text.
