  calendar and address any conflicts with
  supportability and attempt to get agreement on a
  way ahead. The discussion also incluede12-14 as

  unsupportability given the current resources
  projections.
• The group was well attend and all COCOMs where
  represented.
• Training Trends There where 6 training trends
  assigned to this working group. All where
  discussed. The group decided to accept them as

Joint Training EnterpriseRDTE Way Forward
Briefer Mr. Ken Goad

• Issue 08-013 The Joint Training Enterprise must
  cut 11.8M from specific FY08 programs to meet
  approved POM 10 funding levels.
• Discussion The directed 31 cut in JNTC/JSS
  RDTE (11.8M) from FY08 to FY10 will have a major
  impact on the Joint Training Enterprise
  Increased costs to Services and combatant
  commands to execute training Reduction in
  critical capability to support Joint Training
  Enterprise research and development and,
  Reduction in training capability.
• Endstate Training risk to the Force minimized,
  no mission essential tasks eliminated, schedule
  flexibility optimized, and cost/benefit to the
  Joint Training Enterprise evaluated.
• POAM USJFCOM identify targeted cuts.
  Combatant Commands evaluate impact and develop
  contingency plans, as required.
• Status Following discussion at WJTSC 08-2,
  USJFCOM will reconsider proposed targeted cuts to
  minimize impacts to the Joint Training Enterprise
  and vet new proposal with stakeholders.

Use of the Joint Live VirtualConstructive
Federation
Briefer Mr. Ken Goad

• Issue 07-014 The Joint Live Virtual Constructive
  (JLVC) Federation provides the most realistic
  environment to align joint training with
  combatant commander assigned missions,
  requirements and constraints. The JLVC federation
  is comprised of both Joint and Service
  simulations and tools.
• Discussion Current funding provides Joint
  Theater Level Simulation (JTLS) as the standard
  suite to support the Combatant Command Joint
  Exercise Program (JEP), however, JTLS lacks the
  capability to model high fidelity strategic to
  tactical operations. This training shortfall was
  noted in the Joint Staffs Training Capabilities
  Analysis of Alternatives (TC AoA) Gaps 1-22.
  JLVC addresses these gaps. Using the JLVC
  federation is an option contingent upon
  additional Combatant Commander funding for event
  integration (CE2) as well as additional USJFCOM
  Training Transformation (T2) funding for JLVC
  development. Recent cuts to T2 RDTE need to be
  addressed to provide sustained integration and
  development funding streams.
• Endstate Tailored / packaged use of JLVC in
  combatant command exercises to meet specific
  training objectives. Single standardized JLVC
  federation.
• POAM Combatant Commands provide details on
  which exercise(s) are most enhanced with the use
  of JLVC. CE2 SLT allocates funding for JWFC
  support (including JLVC) in accordance with CE2
  business rules/processes. CE2 addresses only JLVC
  integration/support for combatant command events
  but not development of JLVC technical
  enhancements in demand by combatant command
  stakeholders. USJFCOM efforts to reduce JLVC
  costs. Investigate JLVC cross-domain solutions.

Joint Training Enterprise Training MS Gaps
Briefer COL Armstrong

• Issue 09-001 Joint Training Enterprise
  identified key training MS gaps which are
  currently unfunded.
• Discussion As tasked during the WJTSC 08-2, the
  Joint Training Enterprise executed a Training Gap
  Analysis Forum (TGAF) in November 2008 in order
  to identify the top training MS gaps.  The forum
  identified over 29 gaps and validated them with
  the 2004 TCAoA baseline. The forum was conducted
  using the established JTRG requirement
  procedures. The gaps identified from the TGAF are
  currently unfunded.
• Endstate Approval of validated TGAF process and
  results funding or mitigation plans to support
  the development of solutions that close the
  training MS gaps identified by the Joint
  Training Enterprise.
• POAM Joint Training Enterprise identified the
  MS Gaps USJFCOM to lead the effort of gap
  analysis to determine detailed estimated costs to
  close the gaps.
• Status Conduct detailed analysis to determine
  optimal solutions.

Integration of ABCA PartnersInto the Joint
Training Enterprise
Briefer Col Walrond
ABCA American, British, Canadian, Australian

• Issue 08-018 The enhancement of ABCA Joint,
  Combined, Multilateral training in order to
  increase operational capability, preparedness,
  and improve interoperability.
• Discussion  WJTSC WG determined the scope of the
  original issue was too narrowly focused on
  technical issues. No formal procedure exists for
  scheduling and coordinating ABCA Joint Combined
  and Multilateral training and use of the full
  range of LVC training capabilities. An ABCA
  working group, including Combatant Commands and
  JS J7, needs to be established to draft
  agreement(s), develop business rules, and
  identify/develop the appropriate forum for
  coordination. Recommend the WG adopt the
  PACOM-AUS Joint Combined Training Capability
  (JCTC) work as a starting point. Technical
  solutions are moving along well. Formal business
  rules will require a long term effort, but short
  term efforts will continue to leverage existing
  multilateral venues.
• Endstate Defense level policy guidance, and
  agreements. A formal coordination process,
  business rules and/or other documents as
  necessary for ABCA partners and combatant
  commands/Services that outlines the process for
  scheduling and coordinating bi-lateral and
  multilateral training and exercises enhanced via
  LVC enablers using ABCA networks. Short term
  endstate will address OIF/OEF pre-deployment
  training. Long term solution expected to take
  several years.
• POAM
• Formalize overarching vision statement and reach
  agreement in principle
• Establish ABCA WG membership and chair
• Define ABCA training requirements
• Establishment of a scheduling process for the
  JTEN and VC assets
• Develop and adopt ABCA country agreements/business
  rules formalizing this process

Small Group Scenario Trainer (SGST) Formerly
Immersive Learning Environments (ILES)
Briefer Mr. Camacho

• Issue 06-021 Requirement for Large Scale Use of
  Online and On Demand Individual and Group
  Training, Mission Planning and Rehearsal
  Capabilities.
• Discussion SGST meets this shortfall by
  providing a training, and mission rehearsal
  capability that supports both DOD and Interagency
  partners in meeting our national security
  requirements. SGST is a flexible, on-line, and
  distributed training and mission rehearsal
  capability that covers the training life cycle
  from beginning to end. USJFCOM and USNORTHCOM
  conducted tests showing SGST can significantly
  shorten the JELC while improving knowledge /
  capability. USNORTHCOM and USJFCOM are
  collaborating on the development of SGST Version
  1. This SGST system evolution facilitates Joint
  and Interagency training, mission planning,
  rehearsal, and COA analysis.
• Endstate SGST established as a Joint Program of
  Record (POR) to achieve unity of effort in
  individual/small group training across combatant
  commands, Services, Combat Support Agencies and
  Interagency partners. JKDDC leverages training
  transformation funds to provide a centrally
  managed / decentralized and interdependent
  executed SGST capability, in which SGST may be
  configured by the combatant commands to meet
  their training needs. This approach enables
  content sharing across organizational boundaries
  and rapidly supports and optimizes evolving
  changes to organizational structures, people,
  processes and technologies. JKDDC JMO takes
  responsibility for the JKO web enabled SGST
  capability, providing integration with the JKO
  Portal to provide a generalized small group
  training capability.
• POAM OSD contract ends Jun 08. JKDDC JMO
  accepted responsibility for the JKO web enabled
  SGST capability in Feb 08. Leveraging TC AoA Alt
  5 funding, webify SGST focusing on USNORTHCOMs
  training requirements.
