Technical Training Strategy for a Transforming Army

Abstract

The Army is currently transforming at a breakneck pace to ensure it remains relevant and ready to meet the future threats and challenges of the new century. These monumental changes cut across the DOTMLPF (doctrine, organization, training, modernization, personnel and facilities). Quality training has and will always be a vital component of the Army's success. As the Soldier remains the centerpiece of the Army's formations, the Army must transform its training strategy to ensure that each Soldier is both tactically and technically proficient. Based on the historic changes associated with Army transformation, the Army is also revising its Non-commissioned Officer professional development program, but only has plans to modify its strategy as it pertains to tactical and leadership training. The Army must develop and implement a new technical training strategy to ensure that Soldiers remain technologically competent and can successfully function in the future force. It must, therefore, put as much effort and resources into training transformation as it does into the other elements of the DOTMLPF.
