... Systems that will allow scenario generation, modification of training exercises to meet specific requirements, automatic recording and analysis of performance data, and timely feedback of readiness assessments must be overlaid on the integrated network to allow commanding officers and training personnel to tailor the training to the needs of specific crews and missions. · Develop requirements, strategies, and facilities to support the development of a worldwide capability for task force and battle group training.

... At the same time, rapid technological change would require continued retraining of experienced personnel. New jobs would place considerable demands on training technologies, which would have to: · Be cost-effective and quickly applicable to emergent problems; · Enable personnel to perform successfully in increasingly complex tasks; · Be adaptable to different abilities and aptitudes; · Be developed for specific social skills needed for teamwork roles; and · Consider the motivation of the individualts)
