 The Center for Personal and Professional Development, or CPPD's mission, is to develop and deliver education and training opportunities that build personal, professional, and leadership competencies to achieve fleet readiness. Chief Master at Arms Eugene Dando, a CPPD instructor, explains the purpose of the command training team indoctrination course he recently taught in Siganoa. This week is command training indoctrination and it's designed to teach command personnel or another sailor how to effectively teach or to facilitate courses, specifically the Navy Prime Professions course, which is based on teaching leadership. The four-day course trains command training team members how to both instruct command indoctrination and other courses and teach them how to put out information in a politically correct and professional manner, all while keeping the class interesting and under control. Chief Dando says effective training can make a difference in the Navy. Any time you have an opportunity where you're actually teaching others leadership, that does the same either reinforce leadership principles in yourself. That's one piece, that's kind of the biggest piece. The second piece is having it be effective, a difference between just death by power point and having effective training and effective evolution. The fact that it reinstills leadership principles and those that are actually delivering a training and hopefully making a difference in the Navy. Teaching professionalism and leadership is not always as straightforward as standing in front of a class. You can set an example by simply walking around with squared away uniform.
