The Effectiveness of Transportable Acquisition Management Lessons

Abstract

This report documents one phase of a joint services effort--the Guidelines for Transportable Education and Training (GTET) project. The ultimate goal of the GTET project is to provide guidelines for the training manager responsible for converting residential courses into transportable ones. In this report, the authors document the effectiveness of prototype transportable lessons by looking at student performance. The most important finding within the constraints of the study was that transportable courseware is at least as effective as residential courseware in teaching students nontechnical material and is a far more cost-effective approach. Keywords: Transportable education, Computer-based instruction, CBI, Training media, Training design, Training development.
