> To
enhance training effectiveness, the military instruction program for IET Soldiers is modeled after the first three
phases of BCT and adapted to the unique environment of DLIELC. The concept of phasing and associated goals
(IAW para 2-1) was established to provide the entry level Soldier with intermediate objectives, which give common
direction and serve as milestones. Although time goals are identified, a Soldier will not graduate from one phase to
another without meeting academic standards and cadre approval.
