Advanced Training Technologies and Their Impact on Human Performance Improvement

Abstract

This NATO symposium is focused on advanced training technologies that can have a significant impact on the way NATO member nations prepare their personnel for peace and wartime duties. There have been some remarkable developments in our ability to better train personnel. However, merely improving training is not enough to assure that our military organizations are optimized for their duties. We must help our militaries to become "learning organizations" that wisely make use of a variety of technologies, including training, as we seek to optimize human performance improvement. Conceptual underpinnings that are requisite to forming learning organizations are examined. Strategic planning tools, knowledge management systems, and the Learning Management Maturity Model are among the topics explored. Those who seek to transform our militaries into learning organizations should view training and training technologies as two important arrows in the entire quiver of human performance improvement technology.
