What type of assessments helps guide development in the ARSOF CCC?

Self-assessments are critical in guiding development in the ARSOF Captains' Career Course (CCC) because they empower individuals to reflect on their own skills, knowledge, and areas for improvement. By engaging in self-assessment, participants can identify their strengths and weaknesses, set personal goals, and determine the steps needed to enhance their capabilities.

This introspective process fosters ownership of one's development and encourages proactive learning. It also complements other forms of assessment, creating a holistic approach to professional growth. Participants can gain a better understanding of their competencies in relation to the course objectives, which ultimately helps them to prepare more effectively for future leadership roles within the Army Special Operations Forces (ARSOF).

Other assessment methods, while valuable, may not provide the same level of personal insight or ownership of development as self-assessments.
