Battalion Commander Assessment Program – Documentary
In January 2020, the Army held its first-ever Battalion Commander Assessment Program to select the next cohort of officers to lead America’s sons and daughters.

CCAP and BCAP have many similarities in development and execution. This documentary explains how many of these methods were developed and why they are used.
