Okay, folks, it’s that time again. It’s Wednesday and today’s word is AFTB or Army Family Team Building. Here is the mission statement for the AFTB classes:
Army Family Team Building Mission Statement
I had taken the classes back in 2006 when I was a brand new army wife and was trying to make some sense of this crazy military life. The curriculum has just been revamped and I had the opportunity to take Level II (now called Level G) last week and it was great! It was a small class and I got to meet a couple of really cool ladies (and we now have some plans to hang out outside of class- new friends, always a bonus!). Here are the topics covered in each of the levels:
- Level K: 10 courses which provides basic Army knowledge in a non Army tone
- Level G: 12 courses that focus on leadership skills and interpersonal relationships
- Level L: 8 courses centered around advanced leadership skills
You don’t have to take the levels in order, so stop by ACS on-post and see which classes they have coming up! If you don’t live close to an army post or have trouble making it to class, check them out on-line. It’s not as fun as meeting new people and taking the class in person, but it’s still a way to get some great information.
