Much has been written about the future direction of Professional Military Education (PME) (Kelly, 1996 and Ware, 1996). The advancement of technology combined with the drive towards Joint Operations has created new challenges for our PME institutions. Most of the discussion centers on the technology and curricular aspects of the problem, but very little study has gone into the personnel required to transform these institutions. The author proposes that both educational and operational experts are needed in all air and space disciplines to keep Air Command and Staff College (ACSC) at the forefront of academic excellence. In order to stay relevant, ACSC has to be present at creation, and the first step is to involve the right people. Personnel choices are the toughest to make in the shrinking Air Force, but the educational institutions are key to our core values. The study reviews ACSC's history of reform and compares it to other successful educational institutions that have maintained a crucial role in their professions. Using elements common to other successful institutions the author hopes to provide a road map the Air Force can use to keep ACSC vital in this changing environment.
