Continuation of Development of an Individual Extension Training System for Managing and Conducting Training in the Army Unit.

Abstract

With decentralization of Army training, there is a need to develop and implement performance-oriented training programs for developing individual skills in units. The work reported here was devoted to the development and field test of a comprehensive and integrated prototype training and evaluation system for combat units. Based on the results of the effort to date, it is feasible to develop an individual extension training system (IETS) for implementation in Army units. An IETS like that developed here will mesh with requirements of the Enlisted Personnel Management System (EPMS). It will be consistent with the planned use of the Skill Qualification Tests (SQT), and it will fill a long-standing need in the Army's training progression from individual institutional training to operational collective readiness.
