1. Purpose

   • Support CF Ops & Goals
   • Optimize the quality and quantity of individual training and education (IT&E)
   • Engaged when a needs assessment reveals performance deficiencies that can be addressed by training

2. 5 Fundamental Principles to the Managements of IT&E

   • Performance Orientation
     • On the job performance and meeting CF requirements
   • Systems Approach
     • Considers the larger environments of inputs, pressure and constraints that impact processes
   • Systematic Process
     • Step1: Define the Problem
     • Step 2: Analyze the Problem
     • Step 3: Select optimum solution
     • Step 4: Implement the solution
     • Step 5: Evaluate the Results
     • Systematic
       • Needs Assessment
       • (1) Starts with a requirement (2) Has Iterative and Interactive Steps (3) Verification that requirement has been met
       • SAT Approach
         • Cyclical
         • Applied Non-linearly
         • Process oriented
         • Integrated not fragmented
         • Reliable outputs
       • ADDIE
         • Evaluation
         • Implementation
         • Development
         • Design
         • Analysis
       • Training vs. Education
         • Training: Focuses on how (function), predictable response to a predictable situation
         • Education: Focuses on why (understanding), reasoned response to an unpredictable situation
   • Optimum Efficiency
     • Achieve operational needs at a minumum acceptable cost
   • Continuous improvement
     • Ensuring that IT&E is always evolving and improving

3. Quality Control Process

   • Applies to the development, implementation and maintenance to ensure what members are learning meets the requirements of their duties.
   • Six-phase model
     • Analysis
       • Specify objectives for on-job performance
       • Review needs assessment findings and related documentation
       • Analyze tasks and educational requirements for IT&E
       • Specify performance objectives and/or education objectives
       • Responsibility: Training Authority (TA) Input: Training Intervention identified Deliverable: The Qualification Standard (QS)
     • Design
       • Select and describe the IT&E event
       • Define learner characteristics: knowledge, skills, attitude
       • Perform instructional analysis:: analyze PO's and EO's to ensure they allow learner to achieve the objective
       • Prepare learning assessment plan: strategize use of testing to properly assess learning objectives
       • Select instructional strategy
       • Specify course content and lesson guidance
       • Responsibility: Training Establishment Input: Qualification Standard Deliverable: The Training Plan
     • Development
       • Produce or acquire effective instructional materials to support the Training Education Plan
       • Develop assessment instruments
       • Conduct trials and revise
       • Prepare staff
       • Record development costs
       • Responsibility: Training Establishment Input: Training Plan(TP) Deliverables: Master Lesson Plans, EC and PC
     • Conduct
       • Implement the training education plan
       • Administer and manage the learning process
       • Deliver instruction
       • Monitor learning
       • Responsibility: Training Establishment Input: Course Content (MLP's, Checklists) Deliverable: A member who is adequately trained with the necessary knowledge
     • Evaluation
       • Ensure the optimal effectiveness and efficiency of instruction
       • Assess learner achievement
       • Assess content and delivery
       • Assess costs
       • Revise as necessary
       • Responsibility: Training Establishment Input: Students, Instructors, Course critique Deliverables: Course/Program Evaluation
     • Validation
       • Verify that the program has adequately prepared students to perform tasks
       • Scope and plan
       • Collect/analyze data
       • Interpret findings and draw conclusions
       • Report/ recommend
       • Responsibility: Training Authority (TA) Input: On-the-job Data *Usually occurs 6-18 Months after training
   • ***Initated by the recommendations of a Needs assessment, from Operations or Strategic Guidance

4. Needs Assessment

   • Aim is to fully examine a problem or issue before developing a solution
   • Prompted by a performance deficiency or if performance can/should be enhanced

5. Quantity Control Process

   • To ensure that IT&E is given to the right people at the right time for the right cost
   • Six Management Fuctions
     • Identify Quantitative Requirement
       • Determine basic qualification requirements
       • Determine non-basic qualification requirements
       • Prioritize requirements
     • Nominate Personnel
       • Designate personnel, or numbers personnel, to be qualified
     • Propose Schedule
       • Determine potential number and timing of sessions
     • Match
       • Match sessions to nominations
       • Optimize forecast
     • Commission
       • Apply costs to forecast
       • Determine acceptability of costs
       • Prioritize forecast
       • Input forecast to business plan
       • Fund sessions
     • Administer Conduct
       • Prepare Nominal roll
       • Record results
       • Record costs
       • Produce reports

6. Resource Management Mechanisms

   • Operate within the Quality Control Process and the Quantity Control Process to implement, maintain and improve resource-effectiveness
   • Link IT&E to Business Planning to Ensure:
     • Consideration of resource requirements at decision points
     • Identification, tracking and monitoring of costs
     • Assessment of resource-effectiveness
   • Resource Management Mechanisms and Quality Control Process
     • Identify/ Cost Options
       • Ensures all quality control decisioons consider resource implications
       • Entails identifying alternate means of achieving IT&E goals, and estimating costs for each
     • Record Costs
       • Control expenditures by identifying and accurately and comprehensively recording the resources
       • Fundamental process within the Development phase
     • Assess Cost
       • Determine the cost-effectiveness of IT&E programmes by comparing actual and planned costs and results
       • Fundamental process in the Evaluation phase
   • Resource Management Mechanisms and Quantity Control Process
     • Optimize Forecast
       • To minimize the number of sessions conducted by ensuring optimum student load
       • Underlying process in the Matching function
     • Apply Costs to forecast
       • Costs are applied for input into the business pan
       • Inherit process in the Commissioning Function
     • Determine Acceptability of Costs
       • Determine whether costs meet criteria established by the Training Authority
       • Essential process in the Commissioning Function
     • Prioritize
       • Define the link between IT&E and operational requirements
