Policy
- Actively serving chaplains are required to attend the PCCMP Annual Training and Credentialing Event at least once every three years as mission and funding permit. If military commanders cannot provide TDY/TAD funds, we highly encourage the use of permissive TDY/TAD to allow military members to attend events.
- Annual Report Requirement: No Later than 31 December of each year, please submit a completed annual report to the PCCMP. Fillable PDF forms are available below.
