Why Change…Why Now?

• Experience Is Eroding• Increased Mission, Technology and Ops Complexity• Reduced Manning on Many Platforms• Navy Training Can Not Keep up With Today’s System

Development & Acquisition Process• Commercial & Academic Sectors Provide Extraordinary

Learning Opportunities• Sailors Expect to Learn & Grow… Continuously• Covenant Leadership Demands

“Simply Put, We Are Good at Training, but We Can Do Better.”

CNO -- 20 June 2001

Executive Review of Navy Training (September 2000 to July 2001)

• Navy training suffers substantial duplication & redundancy, fragmented policy & priorities…is not efficient or effective

• Sailors want and expect more than we are currently prepared to give them (opportunities for personal & professional development)

• Navy does not determine competencies needed to perform well in jobs, or provide the best possible tools to succeed.

Common Themes--9 Navy Studies--(1971 to July 2001)

1. Navy training not organized to deliver training efficiently & effectively, to either the fleet or the individual

2. There are no clear lines of accountability or responsibility -- Training authority is vested in many organizations

3. Training management fragmented & lacks central control

Why This Structure Will Work Better

• Clear Accountability: Major CDRs, Center COs, HPC– Single training authority; clear chain of command

– Developing “Balanced Scorecard” metrics to assess performance

• “Supporting/Supported” relationship with the Fleet– Better understanding of HP requirements & solutions

• Centers structured to execute the HPSM process – Emphasis on defining HP requirements

– Supports Fleet in determining solutions

– Owns tools/delivers products to impart KSAs

• Resourced to exploit the marketplace – Seek the most effective & efficient products and delivery
