4–15. Command language council
Units with 50 or more linguists will establish a standing CLC in accordance with AR 11–6. Each unit will outline CLC
by-laws and other procedural guidelines in the unit SOP. The CLC will prepare and follow an agenda.
a. The CLCs advise commanders on issues relating to the unit’s CLP and assist the commander in the execution of
their CLP responsibilities. CLC membership should consist of the commander (or representative), CLPM, command
sergeant major or first sergeant, primary staff officers, representatives from each subordinate unit or element that has
assigned linguists, a representative from each staff element, and the unit resource manager. Other language specialists,
technicians, supervisors, and trainers should be encouraged to attend and participate in council meetings. In cases
where geographical separation prevents or renders this requirement impractical, commanders may modify the composi-
tion of the CLC to meet their mission and geographic situation.
b. Commanders will appoint the CLPM as chairperson for the CLC in accordance with AR 11–6. Commanders will
also appoint a minimum of one permanent council member from each subordinate unit or element with assigned
linguists. The commander will appoint the chairperson and permanent council members by memorandum.
c. Using the unit’s CLP for guidance and at the direction of the commander, CLCs may prioritize language training
so that linguists are engaged in remedial, refresher, sustainment, or enhancement language training that satisfies
individual linguist training needs.
d. In cases where the CLC cannot identify language courses or programs to meet unit needs, the unit should
immediately submit a language training support request through their unit CLPM to the ACOM, ASCC, or DRU
CLPM for staff assistance. The request should identify the specific nature of the problem, number of linguists involved,
and any other pertinent information.
e. CLCs will meet at least quarterly. Minutes of all CLC meetings will be published and maintained as part of the
CLP files. Provide copies to the commander and distribute in accordance with unit needs. CLC minutes are subject to
inspection.
f. Commanders with less than 50 linguists assigned may request a waiver from the requirement to establish a CLC.
The request will identify the number of linguists authorized and on hand, the unit’s plan for maintaining the
proficiency of assigned linguists and the name of the language program coordinator who serves as the unit’s point of
contact for CLP requirements and issues. Send requests for waivers through the CLPM to the commander.
g. The CLC may assist the commander in administering linguist incentive programs.
