- Planning Core Curriculum
The Planning Core Curriculum (PCC) is being streamlined and revised to provide
new and experienced Corps Planners with essential skills. Planners are
encouraged to take additional PROSPECT courses related to their field of interest
/ expertise. Archived presentations from previous PCC courses
are available.
- USACE Civil Works Project Development Process - This
Distributed Learning online course introduces students to the life-cycle of Civil
Works projects and an understanding of the Corps of Engineers civil works
program. It is designed for Corps employees who are relatively new to Civil
Works or individuals who require an overall understanding of, and the procedural
stages involved in, the development of civil works projects. This online course is available
without course credit online and open to all. (This class replaces the former Civil
Works Orientation class.)
- Planning Essentials - This course enhances the students
knowledge and awareness of the planning process by providing training on the
USACE Six-Step Planning Process and how to integrate engineering analysis,
public involvement, and environmental and economic considerations into that
process during the development and evaluation of alternative plans for the
USACE water resources development missions. Review the Planning
Essentials Syllabus. View Lessons

(This class replaces the former Planning Principles and
Procedures class.)
- Plan Formulation and Evaluation Capstone - This is the third
course of the Planning Core Curriculum, providing the experienced planner an
opportunity to apply the critical thinking and decision making skills necessary to
be a successful planner. This course enhances the students planning knowledge,
critical thinking ability, communication skills, and capability to use planning
tools and techniques to successfully lead a study to a quality decision document.
Through case studies and participatory activities, the course provides the
opportunity for planners with some training and experience to apply the critical
thinking and decision making skills necessary to be a successful planner.
