The NROTC Guide is the authoritative, first-to-market comprehensive guide to all aspects of the NROTC program. Written specifically for the audience most important to the health and vibrancy of the program�talented young people potentially interested in a career as an officer in the naval service. On an average year, the NROTC program commissions almost a quarter of the Navy�s active-duty officer accessions, approximately equal to the number commissioned by the U.S. Naval Academy. While myriad works exist describing the Annapolis experience, there is currently no book-format guide to the NROTC program, the application process, college life as an NROTC midshipman, commissioning options, or other concerns. Thus, this guide fills an information gap in an increasingly competitive market for America's talented youth.
This study reports best practices of successful Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (JROTC) units. Key factors that influence high-performing units were identified from stakeholder surveys, interviews, and focus groups. Instructors of effective units prepare their students for life after high school with skills and knowledge that cannot be gained by other school curricula or extracurricular activities. They set high standards and tailor their programs to the unique culture of the school and the needs of the students, whether the needs are to help students get into college, maintain a winning drill team, or create a safe environment. As leaders, these instructors have adapted well to the educational environment. They work hard to create support for their unit in the school and in the community. The long hours they spend in community and school service create valuable citizenship and leadership development for the cadets, and bring positive recognition (and often resources) back to the unit. Recommendations are made to disseminate the best practices documented here to JROTC units and to incorporate them in instructor training. Other recommendations concern hiring practices, a review of the JROTC mission, metrics for success, and cross-service learning.
