Which doctrinal publication set is cited for proficiency in individual and collective tasks under NCOPDP?

• A. ADP/ADRP/FM 7-0, FM7-22.7
• B. AR 600-20
• C. DA Pam 611-21
• D. FM 7-22.7

Answer: (A)

The question is asking which group of publications provides the doctrine used to train and certify proficiency in both individual and collective tasks under NCOPDP. The best answer includes the Army’s training and leader development doctrine (ADP/ADRP 7-0) along with the field manuals that govern how training is planned, executed, and evaluated (FM 7-0) and the noncommissioned officer guidance that focuses on developing NCOs and their teams (FM 7-22.7). This combined set directly addresses how soldiers and units achieve and assess task proficiency within the NCOPDP framework. ADP 7-0/ADRP 7-0 establish the overarching purpose and approach to training and leadership development. FM 7-0 provides the hands-on guidance for planning, conducting, and evaluating training events—crucial for building proficiency in both individuals and groups. FM 7-22.7, the NCO guide, translates that training doctrine into NCO-specific responsibilities for mentoring, leading, and ensuring readiness across tasks and teams. Together, these publications form the reference that units use to certify proficiency under NCOPDP. The other options don’t constitute the required training-and-development publication set: the policy-focused AR 600-20 deals with command and equal opportunity policy, while DA Pam 611-21 covers personnel and training-related procedures in a different context. FM 7-22.7 alone isn’t enough without the broader training doctrine and execution guidance provided by the ADP/ADRP 7-0 and FM 7-0.
