Abstract:

The report contained the results and analysis of several surveys given to Subject Matter Experts SMEs. The study was conducted to determine the utility of capitalizing on previous knowledge that new inductees into the US army gained from prior attendance at civilian Vocational Technical VOTEC courses. The benefit would be to reduce the course length of Advanced Individual Training AIT for particular Military Occupational Specialties MOSs. The analysis determined, through descriptive statistics, t tests comparison of scales, and cluster classification analysis, that there were negligible differences between common sections of these courses. Also, the survey instruments were good tests and would approximate the responses provided by similar survey instruments. Included as appendices were various Statistical Package for Social Sciences SPSS outputs, SPSS data files and Microsoft Excel spreadsheets.
