The DL Program plans, coordinates and conducts activities to implement DTMS in the ARNG, enabling units brigade and below to plan, resource and manage unit and individual training. We collaborate with the Army Program Manager to develop and implement Guard-specific functions and capabilities within DTMS. We also provide training and help desk support for ARNG DTMS users.

DTMS, an Army program of record, is a web-based planning and management tool that facilitates an organization’s ability to plan, schedule, resource, record and report individual and collective training in units, brigade and below.

How DTMS is used:
