USAFA Officer Development System (ODS)

The umbrella program that integrates activities across all mission elements and affects all dimensions of personal development is called the Officer Development System (ODS).  The Academy uses ODS to focus all of its development activities on accomplishing the 19 USAFA outcomes.

ODS is designed to organize Cadet experiences so that USAFA achieves its institutional goals, accomplishes its assigned mission, and realizes it strategic vision.
