History. This publication is a new United States Army Training and Doctrine Command
(TRADOC) regulation.
Summary. This regulation prescribes the organization, mission, functions, and command and
control relationships of the Institute for Noncommissioned Officer Professional Development
(INCOPD) and the United States Army Sergeants Major Academy (USASMA), resulting from
the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) Campaign Plan decision to align
USASMA under INCOPD with both reporting directly to Headquarters, TRADOC effective 1
December 2009. It reflects the establishment of INCOPD as a special activity and the
reorganization of the USASMA from a military organization that trains to an academic
institution that educates and trains Soldiers in support of Army force generation (ARFORGEN)
and an Army at war.
Applicability. This regulation applies to the active Army, Department of the Army Civilians,
U.S. Army Reserve (USAR), and Army National Guard (ARNG) assigned or attached to
INCOPD or the USASMA.
