Chapter 1IntroductionSection IOverview1–1. PurposeThis regulation prescribes policies, procedures, and responsibilities for developing, managing, and conducting Armytraining and leader development.1–2. ReferencesRequired and related publications and prescribed and referenced forms are listed in appendix A.1–3. Explanation of abbreviations and termsAbbreviations and special terms used in this regulation are explained in the glossary.1–4. ResponsibilitiesResponsibilities are listed in chapter 2.Section IIArmy Mission and Force Generation1–5. Army mission and strategic goalThe Army’s mission is to build forces capable of Unified Land Operations, able to operate effectively with Joint,interagency, intergovernmental and multinational partners across the range of military operations to provide capableand ready forces to combatant commanders (CCDRs) in support of the National Security and National DefenseStrategies, while sustaining and maintaining the quality of the All-volunteer Force. The Army’s Strategic Goal is toprovide the Joint Force Commander (JFC) with forces prepared to seize, retain, and exploit the initiative to gain andmaintain a position of relative advantage in sustained land operations through simultaneous offensive, defensive, andstability or defense support of civil authorities operations in order to prevent or deter conflict, prevail in war, and createthe conditions for favorable conflict resolution. Training must address the Joint context and follow the concepts andimplementation guidelines in Department of Defense (DOD) Training Transformation.1–6. The modular forceTo meet requirements of current operations and anticipated future missions, the Army restructured operating forces inall components of the Army into operational headquarters and modular brigades - Armored, Stryker, and Infantrybrigade combat teams, multifunctional support brigades (aviation, maneuver enhancement, battlefield surveillance,fires, and sustainment), functional and theater brigades. Modularity enables the Army to assign a set of Army modularbrigades to an operational headquarters to accomplish a specific mission and to synchronize the allocation of resourcesto ensure their readiness. The Army’s intent behind the modular force is for the active Army (AA) to provide rapidlyresponsive, agile and expeditionary forces that typically respond within the first 30 days of an operation. Theavailability of sufficient AA and reserve component (RC) forces will provide the Joint Force commander the capabilities necessary to achieve operational and strategic objectives and to conduct sustained land combat.1–7. Army Force GenerationThe Army Force Generation (ARFORGEN) process established in AR 525–29 is the structured progression of unitreadiness over time to produce trained, ready and cohesive units prepared for operational deployment in support of aCCDR and other Army requirements. The ARFORGEN process is the Army’s core process for force generationcycling units through three phases: Reset, Train/Ready, and Available. Each of the three phases contains a balancedforce capability to provide a sustained flow of forces for current commitments and to hedge against unexpectedcontingencies. ARFORGEN establishes the basis to plan and execute Army-wide unit resourcing. As a model,ARFORGEN supports the Army’s planning, programming, budgeting, and execution (PPBE) process. As a process, itsynchronizes the Army’s efforts to provide land forces and other capabilities required by our Nation.a. The Reset Phase offers the units and individuals the opportunity to focus training on: Soldier-Family reintegration; block leave; unit reconstitution; changes of command; behavioral health, medical and dental readiness; professiona
