United States Air Force Training Management 2010. Volume 2. A Strategy for Superiority
Abstract
This report is part of a US Air Force sponsored study to forecast future technologies and systems required for optimally managing training and education in the next century. The study projections are based on the review of regulations, documents and related publications, and on the interview of more than 100 key training management personnel at the Department of Defense, the Air Staff, major Air Force commands, and special operating agencies. The first volume of the study provides a comprehensive description of the exiting US Air Force training management system and an assessment of the system's four major management activities. Nine significant subcategories of training are examined with emphasis on the data transfer and flows supporting management decisions. This volume of the study identifies future trends with which training managers of the next century must contend. Impacts from such developments as hyper- unstable job requirements, workforce technical illiteracy, and diminishing personnel and funding resources will seriously complicate training management and jeopardize warfighting capability in 2010. Developing technologies, however promise to abate this threat if judiciously planned and nurtured. A suggested future training management architecture and development roadmap is presented to resolve both chronic problems nad future concerns. Keywords: Training management; Student; Technical schools; On-the-job training; Recruiting; Computer training; Training projections.
