Book Synopsis Cost and Efficiency in Military Specialty Training by : Robert M. Gay
Download or read book Cost and Efficiency in Military Specialty Training written by Robert M. Gay and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper focuses on the issue--specialty training for first-term enlisted personnel--and deals briefly with the relationship between this topic and other aspects of the efficient management of military specialties. The conceptual framework, or methodology, for evaluating specialty training which has been developed at Rand considers the costs of both formal and on-the-job training as well as the returns to training for first-term enlisted personnel. This methodology was pilot-tested using members of one Air Force specialty, and results of that study are described. In the pilot study, average costs and returns to training were estimated, and, in addition, estimates were made of the relationship between individual attributes and the cost of training.

Book Synopsis Specialty Training and the Performance of First-term Enlisted Personnel by : Robert M. Gay
Download or read book Specialty Training and the Performance of First-term Enlisted Personnel written by Robert M. Gay and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes some early results of research designed to evaluate the economic efficiency of specialty training for first-term enlisted personnel. To make such an evaluation, one must develop reliable measures of on-the-job performance that (1) reflect net rather than gross productivity, (2) reflect productivity over time, and (3) are based on the performance of specific individuals. Measures that have these properties can be collected by a variety of methods, including direct measurement, job-knowledge tests, and supervisory ratings. The authors provide a preliminary analysis of supervisory rating data assembled to explore tradeoffs among training courses of different lengths. These data consist of enlisted supervisors' estimates of military trainee net productivity at different points in first-term service. The estimates are used to construct profiles of the time path of productivity; a number of profiles are presented. Results suggest that meaningful conclusions can be drawn from data based on carefully constructed supervisory ratings.

Book Synopsis Military Training. Its Effectiveness for Technical Specialties Is Unknown by :
Download or read book Military Training. Its Effectiveness for Technical Specialties Is Unknown written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ability of the armed forces to carry out their mission into the next century will depend on both hardware and personnel considerations: the reliability and appropriateness of weapons systems, the quality of military personnel, and the fit of human skills to the operating demands of weapons systems. If the entry-level aptitude, knowledge, and skills of new recruits should fall short of the human requirements needed to operate and maintain new technologically sophisticated systems, greater demands would be placed on the armed services to compensate for the shortfall through training. The purpose of this report was to examine the information collected by the Department of Defense (DOD) on both the quality of its new recruits and the effectiveness of its training in preparing recruits to operate in a technologically sophisticated environment. A recruit is admitted to military service and assigned to an occupational specialty on the basis of tests taken at recruitment. Upon completion of basic training, most recruits receive additional classroom training in their specialty and then are assigned to perform the specialty in the field. This typical sequence encompasses the three points in a recruit's service career where data critical to evaluating the success of training must be collected: at entrance to military life, during and upon completion of formal training, and after assignment to a military specialty in the field.

Book Synopsis Guidelines for Cost-Effectiveness Analysis for Navy Training and Education by : Philip L. Doughty
Download or read book Guidelines for Cost-Effectiveness Analysis for Navy Training and Education written by Philip L. Doughty and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cost-effectiveness analysis as applied in a military training context is intended to provide systematic information that can be used to select alternative strategies, methodologies, or settings in achieving training objectives. This form of systems analysis is designed to aid the decision maker in selecting from training alternatives by providing a concise and clear-cut review of relevant variables that bear on the training situation. Essential evaluative criteria such as those found in experimental or quasi-experimental designs are examined, but an additional component, cost analysis, is included. The present funding constraints in all areas of military training, and training research and development require that adequate consideration be given to the initial choice of alternative training and educational philosophies, methods, and media with respect to relative cost-effectiveness. This means that alternatives must be considered not only on the basis of outcomes but also in terms of the resources required to accomplish the level of effectiveness that is required or desirable. Secondarily, tools are needed for allocating these resources and re-evaluating them on a timely basis. Even though a training course remains static, earlier findings may become invalid without some continuing means of cost-effectiveness monitoring. (Author).
Book Synopsis The Cost-Effectiveness of Military Training by :
Download or read book The Cost-Effectiveness of Military Training written by and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of flight simulators, computer-based instruction and maintenance training simulators for training is evaluated on the basis of their effectiveness and cost. Flight simulators are cost-effective, compared to the use of aircraft, for training; so are maintenance training simulators compared to actual equipment trainers. Computer-based instruction is as effective as conventional instruction; comparable cost data are not yet available, so one cannot say whether it is also cost-effective. These three methods of training are not more effective than the methods to which they were compared, except for small improvements in a few cases.

Book Synopsis Resources, Costs, and Efficiency of Training in the Total Army School System by :
Download or read book Resources, Costs, and Efficiency of Training in the Total Army School System written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report analyzes the resource use and efficiency of the new prototype school system established by the Reserve Components (RC) in the southeast section of the United States (Region C). The assessment of outcomes in FY95 (the execution year of the prototype) is based on data collected in both FY94 (the baseline year) and FY95 in Region C and Region E, a comparison region in the midwest. The document also discusses ways to further improve resource use and efficiency in the future-primarily by more fully utilizing school system capacity. Because the school system is currently falling far short of meeting RC training demand, we focus on more effectively using current school resources rather than on achieving manpower or dollar savings. However, if training requirements decrease in the future, the results of this research could be applied to achieve resource savings. This report is part of a larger effort by RAND's Arroyo Center to analyze the performance and efficiency of the RC school system.

Book Synopsis Estimating the Cost of On-the-job Training in Military Occupations: a Methodology and Pilot Study by : Robert M. Gay
Download or read book Estimating the Cost of On-the-job Training in Military Occupations: a Methodology and Pilot Study written by Robert M. Gay and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conversion to an all-volunteer military has greatly increased interest in the cost of training first-term enlisted personnel. This report (1) develops a method of estimating military on-the-job training costs and relationships between these costs and the personal attributes of trainees, and (2) evaluates the feasibility of this technique. The method of estimation is a straightforward application of modern human capital theory; investment in OJT is measured as the present value of the sum of positive differences between an individual's military pay and productivity over time. In a pilot study conducted at Norton Air Force Base with members of the largest Air Force specialty (Aircraft Maintenance Specialists), OJT costs were estimated to average $6600 even though all trainees had attended an Air Force technical school costing about $3200. (Modified author abstract).
