This report summarizes the RAND Arroyo Center evaluation, with analyses of the discrete tasks in the legislative language.

The federal government is working to enable simple and strategic hiring practices. Toward this end, the authors identified best practices for recruiting, hiring, and compensation in 41 federal demonstration projects and alternative personnel systems that began between January 2008 and May 2019. These best practices offer solutions for agencies seeking to modernize and refine current personnel programs.

The authors examine how joint educational institutions, joint stakeholders, and the military services can support a transition to joint professional military education (JPME) using the outcomes expected of graduates rather than traditional learning processes. They also provide recommendations for how joint stakeholders and the military services can better integrate talent management and JPME processes to support the outcomes-based approach.

The U.S. Army is introducing a new fitness test for the first time in more than 40 years. The six-event Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) is designed to (1) ensure soldiers are ready to perform combat tasks, (2) reduce preventable injuries, and (3) promote a culture of fitness throughout the Army. In this report, the authors conduct a review of the ACFT and provide recommendations to support the Army's implementation decisions.
