Update regarding our E-6 Sailors eligible for the E-7 exam‼️
An extension has been granted for the Enlisted Joint Professional Military Education I (EJPME I) requirement for Advanced Leader Development Course (ALDC)! E6 Sailors now have until December 31, 2026, to complete EJPME I to be eligible for ALDC. Sailors who do not complete EJPME I by this date will be ineligible to enroll in ALDC.
Per updated guidance in OPNAVINST 5351.2C, EJPME I is a prerequisite to register for the ALDC.
These updates aim to strengthen our enlisted leadership through:
- Continuous professional growth
- Joint-force education and readiness
- Career-long leadership training
- Enhanced preparation for operational and joint environments
Check with your chain of command or career counselor to ensure your professional development is on track!
