The primary focus is to create and strengthen networks that connect the Combat Capabilities Development Command (CCDC)- Army Research Laboratory (ARL), academia, industry, and government agencies and that facilitate the exchange of scientific ideas, the production of knowledge, and the development of a STEM workforce by carrying out the K-College STEM education and outreach programs on behalf of the U.S. Department of Defense and the U.S. Department of the Army to help address the nation's need of a diverse, agile and highly competent STEM-literate talent pool. In order to successfully achieve these objectives the CCDC ARL's vision includes developing a pipeline of STEM repository where people attain the skills and experience for the future workforce. The network facilitates the attainment of Army objectives and ensures the Nation's preeminence in science and technology (S&T).

The Army derives value from its relationships with academia, industry, and other government agencies. The mission of the CCDC-Outreach Program Office is to create and strengthen connections to the academic, industrial, and government agencies who have shared interests and a stake in the Nation's advancement of science and technology. The community is populated by the STEM talent and the Outreach Program Office augments the pipelines that provide the STEM talent. The outreach mission is simultaneously a philosophy, a purpose, and a commitment. In pursuit of this mission, the CCDC-ARL Outreach Program Office will contribute to the overarching missions of the CCDC-ARL and of the Army.
