Guidelines for Training Situation Analysis (TSA)

Abstract

These guidelines represent a textbook for instruction in three phases of Training Situation Analysis (TSA), a standardized procedure, developed by NTDC, for systematically gathering and interpreting the information which is relevant to the planning of training and training devices. Three phases of TSA are described in detail: System Familiarization, Task Analysis Method (TAM) and Training Analysis Procedure (TAP). System Familiarization provides an orientation to the training problem, the system structure and flow, and the equipment. Task Analysis Method produces a set of task descriptions containing the information necessary for making training device decisions. Training Analysis Procedure produces a ranking of tasks based upon the potential benefit to system performance as a result of training and the cost of that training. Recommendations for the conduct of these three phases and suggested working forms are presented.
