I meet the criteria for acceptance into the MIVER pool of
visitors. How do I apply?
Complete the application
form, available on this web site, and submit it with a current
resume/CV.
How can I find out if and when my installation and voluntary
education program will receive a MIVER visit?
Call the MIVER office at (202) 939-9722 or 9723, to determine
if you are scheduled for a visit during the current government fiscal
year (1 October Ð 30 September). If you are inquiring about future
fiscal years, please contact your Service Education Chief.
Who determines when, where, and what kind of MIVER visit
(initial MIVER, MIVER revisit, or MIVER consultation) will be
conducted?
The Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) at DANTES tells
the MIVER office what visits will be conducted, at what installations,
and the dates for these visits. The Service Education Chiefs provide
this information to the COR.
I have been notified that my installation and voluntary
education program have been scheduled for a MIVER visit. How can I
change the dates of this visit or request that this visit be rescheduled
to another fiscal year?
Go through your chain of command (installation and major
command) to submit your change request to the Service Education Chief.
If the Service Education Chief approves the change, the DANTES COR will
be notified and the COR will work with the MIVER office to implement the
proposed schedule change.
My institution has been notified of a planned MIVER visit to
an installation at which we offer a program. However, the MIVER visit is
scheduled at a time that is inconvenient for the institution, such as
during an accreditation visit at the home campus. How can we change the
dates of the MIVER visit?
Report this major conflict to the Education Services Officer
(ESO) at the installation in question, and ask the ESO to request a
schedule change. The ESO will then send the request through the
appropriate chain of command to the Service Education Chief.
Who receives the final report for a MIVER visit?
MIVER visit final reports are provided to the education
centers, the institutions involved in the visit, the installation
commander, the major command, and the Service Education Chiefs.
How can I obtain a copy of a MIVER final report?
The MIVER office maintains a small inventory of MIVER final
reports. If your installation or institution was involved in a
particular MIVER visit, the MIVER office will send you a copy. If your
installation or institution was not involved in that particular MIVER
visit, you must go through the appropriate Service Education Chief to
obtain approval of your request for a final report. The MIVER office
will then send you a copy.
How can I obtain a copy of an installation or institution
self-study?
The MIVER office does not release these self-studies, as many
may contain proprietary information. You must present your request to
the appropriate installation education center or institution.
