Determining the Return on Investment (ROI) for Joint Training

Abstract

Hypothesis: Training at the Operational level is less beneficial when live forces vice synthetic are used. Live forces can be used but, at the Operational level due to the complexity of the scenarios required to train these staffs, a synthetic environment is more cost effective and provides a much greater ROI. The Research Objective: To develop, test, validate, and deliver a methodology which provides a repeatable and reliable means to portray ROI to Operational Level Commanders. The methodology should provide the ability for Operational level staffs to assess performance, costs, and value of training either for routine reporting or in support of certification, regardless of training environment.
