Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) re-engineering 30+ week traditional training pipeline for TRIDENT submarine Missile Technicians (MTs)
Re-engineering effort includes: Development of a blended content
continuum to be taught across an MT’s career Continued use of Navy GOTS ILT (Instructor Led Training) content
authoring toolset (AIM) Incorporation of GOTS e-Learning development tool (VENUS)
MT Continuum blended learning toolset design team: SSP/Support Contractors (Requirements), NAWCTSD/Columbus
Tech(AIM Toolset), LSI (ISD support and Venus Toolset)

Missile Tech (MT) Project Hurdles
Geographically dispersed SSP team members contribute to creation and sustainment of MT content by providing:
– Subject matter expertise (SME), Content design/development , Concurrency management

Missile Tech (MT) Project Hurdles Part II
Technical data source requirements change quarterly, and training must stay current
No other tools or business process alternatives support requirements within SSP project constraints
SSP has limited funding: Current GOTS tool and business approach yield 350-400% ROI SSP project goal to duplicate current efficiencies with re-
engineered, blended ILT / Learner Directed Content (LDC) continuum

Project Team Lessons Learned
Technical Collaboration Immediate establishment of relationships among technical team
working staffs – REMOVE BARRIERS! Clear functional roles and requirements among the multiple
toolsets – much clarity was achieved after project began No “Toolset Territorialism” among ILT & LDC technical staffs –
focus on DATA instead of TOOLS

Project Team Lessons Learned Part II
Content Development Process Definition of standard project process/roles/responsibilities for
each contributor – leveraging past lessons learned and expertise from each
Focus on configuration of ILT, LDC, and other technical tools to support the project process – this is the project’s “secret sauce”
Training of all participating developers in the project process, targeting only the functions in tools needed for development – using REAL MT DATA to train users
Ensuring sufficient SME inputs to content development teams Ability to “pull” versus “push” critical project data via a web-
enabled collaboration portal

Project Team Lessons Learned Part III
Government and Contractor Teaming Obsession with communication – achieved through initial face-to-
face meetings and supplemented by frequent web meetings and circulated reports
Commitment to sharing all feedback within integrated team
Contractual Relationships Painfully clear delineation and documentation of roles for each
contractor partner Frequently revisiting designated roles

Summary
MT Training requires a continuum of blended learning that can be updated and maintained current, “real-time”
Current GOTS tools being leveraged and modified to support blended continuum requirement
Lessons learned takeaway –coordination, communication, teaming are more difficult than achieving technical solution
Authors believe this capability needs to be reproduced and further refined across other organizations to exploit: Learning content tightly integrated with performance requirements ROI from improved life-cycle management Real-time currency of all training materials
