Training for Deployment: Slovenian Armed Forces and the Predeployment Training System
Abstract
This thesis deals with the predeployment training system. In particular, the thesis examined how Slovenian Armed Forces structure and execute their predeployment training. The author chose this topic because it is a relevant issue in the contemporary environment, where the size and the level of training of the force is severely impacted by the available resources. The primary research question is "Is the current predeployment training system in use by Slovenian Armed Forces adequate to meet the needs of contemporary operating environment?" The thesis looks at the current training system in use by Slovenian Armed Forces and compares it to the U.S. Army training system. The thesis outlines the similarities between the two systems, and outlines the differences with an attempt to explain the specifics of Slovenian Armed Forces and their predeployment training system. The conclusion outlines the shortfalls of the current predeployment system, while identifying potential reasons for the situation. The thesis offers two suggestions how to improve the current predeployment training system, with intent to increase effectiveness of training and maximize the use of scarce resources available to Slovenian Armed Forces.
