COA III

• COA III
• COA I and/or II offered at each site
• COCOMs determine delivery type
• Allows more flexibility to meet COCOM needs
• Allows more roll-back opportunities

10
Faculty Costs

• Key Considerations
• Largest portion of overall program cost
• Difference in faculty costs for each COA is not
  significant
• Student to faculty ratio
• Full time and part time mix
• Title 10 pay scale used as standard for
  comparison
• Recommend one full time and one part time faculty
  member for each seminar with two classes per year
• 22 students per faculty, 44 per site, 396
  throughput per year
• Two faculty in classroom
• 1,662,777 total annual faculty cost
• Two additional part time faculty (cost 127,256)
  required to increase annual site throughput to 88
  students
• 2,808,081 total annual faculty cost if all sites
  increase throughput to 88 students (792 total
  throughput)

11
Staff Costs

• 12 new positions at JFSC 1,023,299
• Program Director - Operations Officer
• 2 Curriculum Directors - Reference Librarian
• Circulation Technician - IT Support Technician

• Assessment Analyst - Assessment Production
• Exercise Support
• Add a reference librarian (67,198) for four
  seminars per site (brings total staff cost up to
  1,090,496)
• Cost factors for staff are less for COA I

COA II/III only

• JCWS, JAWS, NWC, ICAF, and Senior Service JPME II
  remain the same
• Student population includes Active, Reserve,
  Guard O-4 to O-6, IOs, and IA personnel
• Count for National Security Professional
  certificate
• No electives
• Some attrition is expected
• Admin and info tech support available
• Wargaming will be table top
• COCOMs will allow students time for JPME II
• COCOM Senior leadership available as Senior
  Fellows
• Blackboard available
• COA II or III acceptance makes AJPME Phase II
  granting

17
Analysis

• Education requirements
• Skeltons pillars
• OPMEP
• Site requirements
• Student population
• Operational environment
• Facilities
• Costs
• Faculty
• Staff
• Facilities, equipment, and material
• COA comparison

18
Skeltons Pillars

• Four prerequisites for JPME
• A curriculum that focuses on joint matters.
• A faculty with equal representation from each
  military department.
• A student body with equal representation from
  each military department.
• Control exercised by the Chairman, JCS.
• All prerequisites are achieved, with some risk
• Faculty and student body mix mitigated by
• Students at a COCOM staff are immersed in a Joint
  environment
• Using Title 10s requires former Service as mix

19
OPMEP

• JPME II Learning Areas and Objectives
• COA I uses JCWS syllabus
• COA II uses AJPME syllabus
• COA III will require single curriculum
• Joint attitudes and perspectives
• Faculty mix
• Student mix 60/40 (Joint immersion everyday)
• PAJE
• Regardless of curriculum applied, this will meet
  the criteria for a substantive change
