The practicum consists of a five-week summer training program at an Army installation that stresses the application of military skills to rapidly changing situations. Participants are evaluated on their ability to make sound decisions, to direct group efforts toward the accomplishment of common goals, and to meet the mental and physical challenges presented to them. Completion of this practicum is required prior to commissioning and is normally attended between junior and senior years.
Participants receive room, board, travel expenses, medical care, and pay.
