Job Skills Education Program: Review of the Job Task Analysis and Clustering Schema

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 presents a review of the RCA contract products to be used in JSEP. All contract products were reviewed and an analysis of their usefulness to the JSEP curriculum was made.. Alternative clustering schemes were tried, but none proved useful for curriculum design. Other RCA contract products, including task analyses, taxonomy, and indicator statements were found useful for JSEP design purposes.
