Introduction

All enlisted personnel should be exposed to EJPME as they progress through their respective Services’ EPME system. This exposure is designed to prepare them to succeed in the complex future operating environment by improving their ability to operate effectively as part of the future joint force. Some enlisted personnel require more comprehensive joint education to prepare them for an assignment to a joint billet at the senior enlisted leader (SEL) or command senior enlisted leader (CSEL) level.

EJPME includes two educational levels that span an enlisted member’s career and apply to all enlisted personnel. Each level is designed to build upon the knowledge gained through the other.

A third educational level applies to senior enlisted members and above who are assigned to joint billets. A brief summary of the three EJPME levels follows:

  1. Basic EJPME. The basic EJPME level addresses the progressive educational guidelines that should be completed by pay grade E-6.
  2. Career EJPME. This level addresses educational guidelines for SEL personnel in grades E-6/7 and above.
  3. Senior EJPME. This level includes two CJCS-sponsored assignment oriented educational opportunities beginning at the SEL level:
    1. Senior Enlisted JPME (SEJPME) Course. A stand-alone web-based course that educates SELs serving in or slated to serve in a joint organization.
    2. KEYSTONE Course. This is a resident-based course which prepares CSELs for service in a flag officer joint headquarters and parallels the General and Flag Officer (G/FO) CAPSTONE Course.
