Using Technology to Train America's Decisive Force

Abstract

As the Army reshapes its force structure and begins consolidating its operational experience after a decade of war, the Army Chief of Staff is focusing on maintaining and then enhancing the quality and readiness of Army forces. An effective way to do this is through integration of our training domains (operational, institutional and self-development) to include lessons learned and by encouraging career and lifelong learning. Currently available technology and emerging training capabilities support individual and collective training at home station, link to Army Centers of Excellence (CoEs) and institutions, and conduct multi-echelon and concurrent training in relevant scenarios that potentially complement and support live training at the combat training centers. This requires increased collaboration with industry, academia and technology leaders to drive the development of integrated training capabilities as well as provide technology that integrates training and education and addresses innovative ways to provide training in the future.
