Each quarter, senior enlisted leaders from around the globe gather, either in person or via video teleconference, for training. The training is conducted in-person in Colorado Springs, Colo., with leaders in outlying units dialing in, often at odd hours for those overseas, to receive information to help them guide and mentor their Soldiers. This quarter, training focused on updates to online training and mentoring programs, and Soldier retention, among other topics.
