Summary Remarks

• Solution to training deficiency is more than
  joint education and doctrine. Its partially
  service based, its cultural, its personnel
  systems.
• Individual and staff joint training are based on
  JMETs. Mission ready is ready to perform
  day-to-day (and JTF) tasks that support JMETs.
• There is a need to manage expectations, and
  select the right people that can provide
  capability to fulfill a requirement.
• Leadership is the key element to a successful
  individual and staff joint training program.

Joint Staff Officer Training

• Issue 06-001 Combatant command / Component / JTF
  Staff Training. Need basic joint training, to
  include Integrated Operations, for individuals
  assigned to Joint staffs.
• Discussion Majority of permanent and individual
  augmentee personnel arrive unprepared to assume
  joint staff duties and there is no established
  process for maintaining currency of personnel.
  Solutions may include JPME I/II, Web Based
  Training (JTF 101), resource specific training AO
  course (indoc) and OJT.
• Endstate Establish Joint Individual Learning
  Continuum that meets individual joint training
  requirements prior to joint duty assignment and
  sustains preparation and competence throughout
  professional career through combination of
  education, training and self-development. Joint
  training programs systematically update learning
  objectives and courses to keep up with the
  rapidly changing joint environment.
• POAM JKDDC JMO execute FY07 08 PEPs for
  development, updating and distribution of
  web-based individual training services, knowledge
  and courseware. Combatant commands develop and
  provide tailored joint staff instruction
  leveraging Joint Training Facilitator Specialists
  (JTFS). JS J7 Joint Learning Continuum study
  phases I II identifies current / emerging
  training requirements. Ensure deployment orders
  require appropriate courses.

Integrated Operations Training

• Issue 06-002 Individuals assigned to combatant
  command staffs are not formally trained on
  doctrinal interagency coordination tasks and
  continue to execute integrated operations in an
  ad hoc fashion.
• Discussion National strategic guidance requires
  USG personnel to plan, coordinate and implement
  integrated operations. There is a need to
  develop and implement an integrated DOD-wide
  interagency training program, to provide
  personnel integrated operations training to
  accomplish missions.
• Endstate An integrated DoD-wide interagency
  coordination training program supports combatant
  command integrated operations requirements and
  incorporates both content as well as throughput
  requirements and tracking for personnel.
  Deployment systems ensure personnel
  deployment/assignment orders contain
  assignment-appropriate pre-deployment training
  for integrated operations and provide adequate
  lead time to accomplish such training. OSD and
  JS provide combatant commands with trained senior
  leadership and staff officers prepared to
  accomplish interagency coordination.
• POAM OSD/PR develop a long-term integrated
  operations training strategy, building on its
  short-term PRT work. JKDDC courses available for
  stakeholder requirements. JS J7 operationalizes
  the Learning Continuum with JKDDC LMS support.

TC AoA Alternative 5

• Issue 06-004 Combatant commands lack support to
  adequately meet individuals / staffs and JTF and
  functional component HQ staff joint training
  requirements.
• Discussion Combatant commands identified
  requirement to source an organic training and
  exercise capability in order to conduct and
  manage combatant command specific training,
  identify combatant command individual/collective
  training requirements and track and manage
  individual/staff joint training and readiness.
• Joint Training Facilitator Specialist (JTFS)
  support provided via TC AoA Alt 5 to the
  combatant commands (one each initially). Council
  of Colonels (COC) unanimous decision to provide
  additional contracted support (total of 3 JTFS)
  to each combatant command, except USJFCOM.
• Combatant commands use JTFS to focus JKDDC
  development and USJFCOM-developed innovative
  lightweight simulations and tools to resolve gaps
  between JTP identified training requirements and
  existing collective and individual capabilities.
  JKDDC products are now addressing requirements.
  Centralized development of combatant command
  specific modules at USJFCOM can adequately
  capture unique requirements that support a formal
  individual training program. JKDDC should address
  job-specific individual AO training as well as
  joint education.
• Endstate Combatant commands fully resourced
  (personnel and tools) to support individual/staff
  training.
• POAM JS J7 support combatant command JTFS
  requirements. USJFCOM deliver initial use cases
  for Alt 5 tools.

Immersive Learning Environments (ILES)

• Issue 06-021 Requirement for Large Scale Use of
  Online and On Demand Individual and Group
  Training, Mission Planning and Rehearsal
  Capabilities.
• Discussion ILES is an OSD funded effort to
  resolve the immediate need for an education,
  training, and mission rehearsal capability that
  supports both DoD and interagency partners in
  meeting a new set of homeland defense
  requirements. Our shortfalls include a lack of a
  common training and exercise tool which limits
  opportunities to train with partners and a
  knowledge gap between individual training and
  large scale exercise or real-world events. NORAD
  and USNORTHCOM and JFCOM are hosting the
  development of the ILES prototype to fill these
  missing capabilities. ILES is a flexible,
  on-line, and distributed training and mission
  rehearsal capability that covers the training
  life cycle from beginning to end. Successful
  tests / evaluations have been conducted and ILES
  can significantly shorten the JELC while
  improving knowledge/capability. System evolution
  facilitates joint and Interagency training,
  mission planning, rehearsal, and COA analysis.
• Endstate A solution that supports the training
  and operational requirements of the joint,
  interagency, multinational communities, and Joint
  Knowledge Development and Distribution Capability
  (JKDDC) users. The solution(s) may include both
  an ILES centralized web-based architecture
  integrated within the JKDDC Joint Knowledge
  Online Portal, and a decentralized and
  interdependent approach where ILES is controlled
  by multiple cooperating organizations, with the
  end state in either case to provide a dynamically
  scalable, distributed, collaborative exercise
  environment to provide on-demand individual and
  small group training.
• POAM Collaborative technical evaluation of
  potential solutions by stakeholders. Deploy
  web-based prototype.

LMS Employment

• Issue 06-023 Use of multiple Learning
  Management Systems (LMS) inhibit the ability to
  integrate training and personnel records and adds
  unnecessary complexity to integration with JTS
  and DRRS.
• Discussion  Joint standard(s) must exist for the
  identification of requirements dealing with data
  needed for a consistent, interoperable tracking
  of learner profiles, competencies or training
  records. Multiple LMSs are being used across the
  Joint Community. Each LMS has different
  requirements dealing with learner profiles,
  competency tracking and training record
  management. Implementation must consider
  combatant command inputs to LMS data base and
  functions percentage of combatant command
  -specific learning modules to be hosted on LMS
  combatant command permissions to manipulate LMS
  and JKDDC responsiveness to change inputs
• Endstate Universal Joint LMS in use potential
  savings in terms of course development
  standardization across combatant commands
• POAM Employ JKDDC LMS for combatant commands
  maximizing JKDDC assets to enhance combatant
  command staff training. Fund a multi-combatant
  command LMS. Develop standards to address
  ontology, taxonomy, metadata, personnel tracking,
  security methods, interoperable learner profiles,
  and competency and training records for Joint
  community.

Insufficient ADL Resources

• Issue 06-013 Combatant command staffs not fully
  trained to joint mission requirements. Immediate
  assistance needed in obtaining web-based
  resources to meet joint mission training
  requirements
• Discussion E-learning content produced by JKDDC
  is conventional web-based instructional
  course-ware. Service knowledge portals produce
  content labeled as knowledge objects, but
  content is not yet systematically packaged for
  reuse. Some combatant commands have largely
  unfunded ADL programs.
• Endstate A timely, collaborative process that
  ensures JKDDC courseware development supports
  combatant command joint mission training
  requirements IAW established DOD quality
  standards (i.e. SCORM compliant). All JKDDC
  content will be registered in the ADL-R for
  searchability and reusability.
• POAM Recommend joint training shortfalls be
  identified as urgent readiness need. T2 funds
  for JKDDC be increased by 10M per year to
  address combatant command joint knowledge
  development and distribution needs through
  requirements-based approach. Move to more rapid
  techniques involving real world mission planning,
  analysis and rehearsal. Focus on rapid
  development of a common set of joint tools,
  standards and specifications to provide immediate
  support to joint war fighter needs.
• STATUS JKDDC Stakeholders/PAT process determined
  FY07 requirements for development and cleared the
  backlog of FY03-06 requirements.

Integrated Operations Education

• Issue 06-003 Personnel assigned to combatant
  commands not formally educated or trained to
  accomplish doctrinal interagency coordination
  tasks staffs execute Integrated Ops ad hoc.
• Discussion National strategic guidance requires
  USG personnel to plan, coordinate and implement
  interagency operations. There is a need to
  develop and implement an integrated DOD-wide
  interagency learning program, to provide
  personnel doctrinal orientation to accomplish
  missions.
• Endstate An integrated DoD-wide learning program
  based on doctrinal guidance in JP3-08 supports
  combatant command interagency coordination
  requirements and incorporates both content as
  well as throughput requirements and tracking of
  personnel. Deployment systems ensure personnel
  deployment/assignment orders contain
  assignmentappropriate pre-deployment learning
  for integrated operations and provide adequate
  lead time to accomplish such learning prior to
  arrival at joint assignments. JS and combatant
  commands staffed with trained and educated senior
  leaders and staff officers who can accomplish
  interagency coordination/integrated operations.
• POAM
• Service/Joint JPME schools continue to support
  doctrine-based learning in Interagency
  Operations.
• USD/PR and JS J1 develop personnel management
  processes that support enhanced throughput,
  assignment, tracking, incentives, and appropriate
  learning prior to arrival to any joint
  assignment.
