Does the United States Air Force Academy's Training Philosophy Really Work

Abstract

This paper provides a summary review of the effectiveness of the United States Air Force Academy's Academy Training Philosophy (ATP), based upon all known studies. Results at both the U.S. Air Force and Coast Guard academies indicated: (a) positive acceptance of both the model as a whole and with the individual ATP principles; (b) ATP behaviors correlated strongly with supervisory effectiveness ratings; and (c) military performance ratings of freshmen subordinates were significantly higher for those supervisors using ATP than those supervisors not using ATP.
