Tailoring Shipboard Training to Fleet Performance Needs: III. Development of Deckplate Procedural Training for the Shipboard Propulsion Plant Operator Training (SPPOT) Program.

Abstract

In designing a shipboard training program for propulsion watchstanders, it was necessary to specify shipboard training strategies; identify skills and knowledges required by propulsion watchstanders; develop a description of the propulsion system aboard USS CONSTELLATION, where the project was being conducted; and develop algorithmic flow charts of watchstander procedures. The training program developed, called the Shipboard Propulsion Plant Operator Training (SPPOT) program, included training modules and procedural, locational, and administrative training aids. Two types of procedural training aids were developed and evaluated aboard CONSTELLATION. Results showed that shipboard personnel considered the aids helpful in training. It appears that products developed under this project can be generalized to other parts of the fleet.
