Skill Training Analysis--Phase II: The Linkage of Unit Level Skill Training and Maintenance Productivity in Air Force F-16 Units.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze individual skill training conducted at the installation level and determine the linkage between this installation level training and maintenance productivity. The authors used units containing the Air Force F-16 aircraft for our sample since it is one of our newest airplanes and it required extensive training/retraining of maintenance personnel. The use of simulated aircraft maintenance trainers, rather than actual aircraft for training, was specifically included in our analysis both in terms of training capability and cost savings. The task included these subtasks: (1) identify measures of maintenance productivity; (2) identify training status of organizations and individuals; (3) reexamine and develop analytical methods for linking training and productivity; (4) analyze information and evaluate results; and (5) document the results of the analysis.
