Foreword



From the Commanding General

U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command

The Army is a learning organization. Therefore, the Army’s vision is to immerse Soldiers and Army civilians in a progressive, continuous, learner-centric, competency-based learning environment from their first day of service. Within this environment, the Army applies a comprehensive program combining training, education, and experience to develop agile, adaptive, and innovative Soldiers, Army Civilians, and teams able to fight against capable and elusive enemies and win in a complex world. The Army intends to focus on the learner to strengthen and develop competencies that enable leaders to build trusted, cohesive teams capable of winning in all environments and across all domains. The learning environment will consist of tough and realistic conditions and include joint, interorganizational, and multinational components to prepare leaders for 2025 and beyond.


Building on the enduring foundation of more than 24- years of preparation to defend the Nation, the Army looks to the future through its concept development process. The documents within the Army Concept Framework describe fundamental ideas about future Army operations and key required capabilities. United States (U.S.) Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) Pamphlet (TP) 525-8-2, The U.S. Army Learning Concept for Training and Education 2020-2040 (ALC-TE) is a leadership-directed concept that outlines the key characteristics and elements required to build the future Army learning environment.
The ALC-TE combines thoughts from both TP 525-8-2 (Army learning concept) and TP 525-8-3 (Army training concept) into one document that supersedes both. The ALC-TE provides the Army visualization of the future learning environment. It describes a continuous, adaptive learning enterprise that facilitates a career-long continuum of learning. The ALC-TE creates the conditions necessary for the Army to develop trained and capable Soldiers and Army civilians with the knowledge and skills needed to generate and sustain trained teams that improve and thrive under conditions of ambiguity and chaos.
This concept focuses the Army’s efforts to enhance learning in Army classrooms, in the field, and through self-development. Future Army training and education will help Army leaders think clearly about future armed conflict across the human dimension, learn about the future by optimizing leader development, analyze learning outcomes, gaining intellectual and cognitive advantages over future adversaries, and implement outcomes to refine training and education.

History. This major revision consolidates U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) Pamphlet (TP) 525-8-2, United States Army TRADOC’s Army Learning Concept, change 1, and TP 525-8-3, Army Training Concept, into a single concept, TP 525-8-2, the U.S. Army Learning Concept for Training and Education, 2020-2040. Because this publication is revised extensively, not all changed portions have been highlighted in the summary of change.
Summary. TP 525-8-2 describes a future Army learning environment that meets the need to develop adaptable, thinking Soldiers and Army civilians with the learning competencies to generate and sustain trained teams. The concept focuses on individual learning to enable individualized and career-long learning that is integrated seamlessly with unit training capabilities to support the conduct of joint combined arms operations.
Applicability. This concept applies to all Department of the Army (DA) activities that develop doctrine, organizations, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, facilities and policy (DOTMLPF-P) capabilities. This concept informs subsequent supporting concepts and the Joint Capabilities Integration and Development System process. It supports Army capabilities

development processes described in TRADOC Regulation 71-20 and functions as a conceptual basis for developing concepts related to the future force within DOTMLPF-P. It also supports Army training and leader development described in Army Regulation 350-1.

This document supersedes TP 525-8-2, dated 20 January 2011, TP 525-8-2 Change 1, dated 11 June 2011, and TP 525-8-3, dated 7 January 2011.
