Joint National Training Capability (JNTC)
Abstract
Investment in the Joint National Training Capability (JNTC) program enables Service and Combatant Commands to train as they operate as part of the overall Joint Force. JNTC provides the technical standards, architecture, and development processes required to integrate/link joint training enablers in programs across the Department of Defense. The capabilities enable simultaneous training at scale, with aggregation of training audiences at the Combatant Command, Joint Task Force, Component Command headquarters, and Service tactical levels. The funding also supports modernization of the Joint Training Environment (JTE) through a Modular Open Systems Architecture (MOSA) approach to include development of a cloud-enabled, web-accessible Joint Training Tool (JTT) that supports all phases of an exercise (planning and design, execution, and AAR). The JTT will increase warfighter access to semi-automated training enablers within the Joint Training Synthetic Environment (JTSE). The JTT will also modernize the automation the Joint Training System (JTS) by incorporating current Joint Training Information Management System (JTIMS) capability, with a focus on data centricity, as outlined in the DoD Data Strategy. JNTC enables the Department of Defense to train the Joint Force on the operationalization of the current and future Joint Warfighting Concept, and provides more effective training by providing capabilities that replicate the contemporary and future operating environment. This program will implement the goals listed in the Joint Operational Training Infrastructure (JOTI).
