Download or read book Security Assistance written by U S Government Accountability Office (G and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-07 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the International Military Education and Training (IMET) Program to determine whether the Departments of State and Defense: (1) complied with program policies and procedures; and (2) met the U.S. foreign policy objective of exposing IMET trainees to U.S. values, including human rights. GAO found that IMET program management lacked: (1) procedures for reviewing new training requirements added after programs were approved at training workshops; (2) a system for evaluating the program's success; (3) guidelines for monitoring the use of IMET graduates; and (4) the ability to ensure that IMET funds were efficiently and effectively used. GAO also found that U.S. and foreign military officials agreed that the IMET program was valuable because it: (1) enhanced the military-to-military relationship needed to address U.S. foreign policy objectives; (2) provided reciprocal training to U.S. personnel and promoted democratization; (3) provided weapon system sales opportunities for U.S. industry; (4) improved the overall professionalism of the recipient nation's military; and (5) enhanced understanding of U.S. military doctrine and technology.

Book Synopsis International Military Education and Training by : James L. Walker
Download or read book International Military Education and Training written by James L. Walker and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Military Education and Training (IMET) is more important today than ever before. Security assistance has historically played a prominent role in foreign and defense policy. The IMET program is an essential complement to the U.S. defense effort, in that it represents the most visible aspect of U.S. foreign and defense policy and its implementation results in tangible evidence of U.S. interests and presence. Such evidence is illustrated with the IMET program, which enables governments to increase their internal defense capabilities. Extended IMET provides the opportunity for foreign civilian leaders to learn, through U.S. guidance and assistance, how to establish a practical infrastructure and economic base in their own country. This program helps achieve and maintain regional stability. IMET is truly the ultimate foreign policy tool that will give the U.S. an edge over enemies, defend against attack and protect vital interests in the twenty-first century. Congress should recognize the strategic importance of IMET and appropriate additional funding.

Download or read book The International Military Education and Training Program written by Jesse J. Trotter and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of the August, 1991 version of the National-Security Strategy of the United States marked a watershed in the evolution of American defense planning by migrating from a forty year policy of containment to one emphasizing regional interests and threats. As DOD considers competing programs to support this regionally-based strategy, the International Military Education and Training Program (IMETP), which provides professional military education and technical training to foreign military personnel, is offered as a possible solution if the program is strengthened and expanded. This study places the IMETP into proper context with the other, larger components of the U.S. security assistance program, examines the dynamics that are currently affecting the program and proposes possible solutions to allow it to make a greater contribution. The study is based on primary source materials as well as interviews with current and retired security assistance officials and key Congressional staff personnel.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the research conducted in a project entitled "The Effectiveness of U.S. Military Training Activities in Promoting Internal Defense and Development in the Third World." This report assesses the effectiveness, utility, and advisability of U.S. training of foreign militaries in internal defense and development (IDAD) skills. Among the project's conclusions are the following: training in IDAD skills has only a marginal effect on a foreign military's behavior; with the end of the Cold War, the United States can nonetheless show more discretion in determining which countries will receive IDAD training; such discretion will be particularly important given the overall decrease in U.S. foreign military training and the need to maximize the effects of such training worldwide; training in foreign internal defense (FID) or IDAD skills should be complemented by education in the theories underlying democratic development such as is being provided through the expanded IMET (IMET-E) program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Security Assistance has been, and continues to be an important policy instrument in the pursuit of U.S. National Security Strategy. In particular, the International Military Education and Training (IMET) program, the smallest component of U.S. Security Assistance, plays a vitally important role in the U.S. Government's ability to engage with, and enlarge a growing community of newly emerging democracies. The return on investment of the IMET program has been documented and recognized as significant. This low cost program has trained and educated many foreign military and civilian students. Their exposure to American culture and values has been viewed as an investment, not only in friendship, but in the student's ability to influence their country's policies and promote U.S. ideals and interests. With the collapse of the Soviet Union, it is imperative that the IMET program be expanded. For the U.S. to succeed in promoting long term stability, encouraging military cooperation in coalition operations, and fostering the growth of democracy and human rights worldwide, we must immediately improve on this already excellent program.
Book Synopsis Evaluating Security Assistance Programs by : Todd R. Calhoun
Download or read book Evaluating Security Assistance Programs written by Todd R. Calhoun and published by . This book was released on 1998-12-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991 the International Military Education and Training (IMET) program was expanded to include training programs focusing on civilian control over the military, respect for human rights, and responsible defense resource management. In 1993 Congress institutionalized the federal government's commitment to performance measurement by signing into law the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA). GPRA requires the Departments of State and Defense to demonstrate the results achieved by programs such as Expanded IMET (E-IMET). The purpose of this study is to address how the Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) can tackle the challenge of measuring the effectiveness of the E-IMET program. A spectrum of approaches exists to evaluate public programs and is anchored on one end by the "technically rational paradigm" and on the opposite end by the "politically rational paradigm." By organizing the security assistance objectives of key E-IMET stakeholders into a Global Hierarchy the researcher was able to link the E-IMET program to national level goals, creating an objective baseline from which to measure the performance of the program. Individual objectives hierarchies were then created for each E-IMET objective and performance indices were proposed to meet the requirements of the GPRA mandate.

Download or read book International Military Education and Training: A Shaper of the Security Environment of the Future written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Military Education and Training Program (IMET) has long been recognized as a highly successful means of providing assistance to other militaries around the world while serving as a low key but very effective foreign policy tool. This program provides a forum for military personnel to experience the U.S. lifestyle and the civil military relationship in a large democratic society. Officers establish lasting professional relationships with their contemporaries from other nations. IMET, a subtle but significant shaper of the national security environment of the nineties, will continue to be an important tool in shaping the security environment into the next millennium. As we look back on the changes in our environment just over the past decade and prepare for the future, we must ask the question, "How should the United States of America use the IMET program to help shape our security environment of the future."
