Character Initiatives

The William E. Simon Center for the Professional Military Ethic (SCPME) at West Point is focused specifically on the Military Academy’s mission of Officership and character development and supporting the character integration effort across the Academy.

The desired outcome for West Point’s increased emphasis on Officership and character is West Point graduates provide the moral leadership necessary to build cohesive teams and ethically accomplish the mission.

Support will enhance the Officership Community of Practice (Center for Junior Officers), the annual Mission Command conference, Inspiration to Serve, and Character Academic Individual Advanced Development (AIADs).
