Job Skills Education Program: Predictive Cost and Effectiveness Analysis

Abstract

The Job Skills Education Program (JSEP) is designed to provide soldiers with the prerequisite knowledge and skills required for successfully learning their Military Occupational Specialties (MOS). When the JSEP is put into effect, it will replace the Army's current Basic Skills Education Program (BSEP) with a sophisticated, computer based system. This report identifies the key cost and training effectiveness variables that will be used to analyze JSEP. A variety of models were examined for inclusion in the JSEP model. A description of the planned analysis and data collection plans is also presented. Keywords: CTEA (Cost and Training Effectiveness Analysis); Training cost model; Cost benefit; Basic skills training.
