A Methodology and Analysis for Cost-Effective Training in the AN/TSQ-73 Missile Minder
Abstract:
The methodology presented in this paper visualizes the problem of cost effectiveness in the following ways First, it assumes an average level training developer who may or may not be aware of the latest psychological training options available to him and who may or may not be aware of all current managerial policies that affect his choices. Second, it assumes that TRADOC and the training manager have policies which they expect to see reflected in cost and operational effectiveness analysis COEA decisions. Third, the COEA analyst may or may not have access to a complete Train Up Study TUS from which to refine his decisions. Fourth, he is probably under time pressure to supply alternate programs as training input for one component of a complete COEA analysis. Fifth, he has a limited number of support personnel.
