  12. FORCE GOALS 2012 – E 0356LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY FOR DEPLOYABLE FORCES 1. Improve the English language skills of all personnel planned for employment within Alliance staffs or on operations. In addition to special measures to increase the language proficiency of serving officers and NCOs, integrate adequate language training into the curricula of officer and NCO education establishments and in career development programmes. 2. Ensure that all personnel planned for participation in NATO staffs or other multinational headquarters, and MOD, General Staff and service staff personnel who are routinely involved with NATO issues, have English language skills at the minimum as follows (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing in accordance with STANAG 6001: edition 3, February 2009): a. Officers: SLP 3-3-3-3. b. NCOs: SLP 2+2+2+2+. 3. Ensure that the following personnel subject to deployment on NATO operations, exercises or training are tested to ensure they meet the minimum English language skills as follows: a. Officers in command positions and all principal staff officers: SLP 2+2+2+2+. b. All other officers: SLP 2-2-2-2; and c. Appropriate NCOs, OR-5 and above likely to have frequent contact with personnel from other nations: SLP 2-2-2-2. d. Enlisted personnel of all services planned to operate tactical communications, operate on NATO communications networks or who are members of tactical air control parties: SLP 2-2-1-1. 4. Nations should conduct general proficiency language testing IAW STANAG 6001, edition 3, using testing methodology as recommended by the Bureau of International Language Coordination and the ACT sponsored Language Testing Seminars. 5. Notwithstanding the above, nations are encouraged, where possible, to provide basic English language training to all NCOs participating in NATO operations and exercises.
