Enhancing Reserve Component Unit Training

Abstract

The broad conclusions of the report orient on relating the Army's approach to identification of training requirements, training management, and training support to the realities of the training environment of reserve component units. It discusses the Reserve Component training environment and its implications and translates them into recommended actions and approaches which are designed to optimize the capacity of units to train effectively within the constraints that face them. The recommendations contained in this report are interactive. Taken together they are designed to provide a framework within which unit commanders can maximize the potential of their units during premobilization training. The report contends that the reserve component training challenge is considerably different from that of the active component and that approaches to maximizing the effectiveness of training in RC units requires solutions derived from an understanding of that challenge and a recognition that methods and procedures which are effective for the active Army will not always have equal applicability to the RC.
