UJTL
The UJTL serves as a library of mission tasks
in a common language and functions as a
foundation for planning, readiness reporting,
joint training, and joint military operations
across the range of military operations. The UJTL
enables the retrieval of information related to
accomplishment of a specific task, allowing users
to review planning, training, readiness, and
lessons learned. CJCSI 3500.02, Universal
Joint task List Policy and Guidance for the Armed
Forces of the United States.

UJTL
What do they do?

• 1) UJTL Tasks are the basis of Joint Mission
  Essential Tasks
• Provides the basis determining training and
  readiness status
• Building blocks of a Joint Training Plan and
  Individual Joint Training
• Provides for inputs into joint readiness
• UJTL Tasks are what we do!
• Tasks also define what the individual should do!
• 2) Allows you to track relationships to
  readiness, training status, assessment, lessons,
  etc.
• Provides method of relating different systems
• Provides linkage to Individual Training Courses

Example Modification to Existing Task

• ST 7.2.4 Assess Training and Education
  Effectiveness
• Description To conduct an evaluation of
  education and training to measure the
  demonstrated performance of combatant commanders,
  components, individuals, leaders, and units
  against specified education and training
  standards. This task, conducted by the combatant
  commanders, includes after-action reviews,
  feedback, and organizational assessments and
  provides feedback for altering policy. (CJCSI
  3500.01A, CJCSI 3500.02A, CJCSM 3500.03)
• Note/Background This task may include
  consideration of individual training such as
  Joint Knowledge Online (JKO) Joint Fundamentals
  modules, based on joint doctrine (JFC 100
  modules) and/or insights and best practices (JFC
  200), and Staff training such as Immersive
  Trainer. The Continuum of eLearning (CoL), joint
  integrated online learning, is recommended as the
  baseline consideration for all individual and
  staff training.
• (Note the above EXAMPLE of an addition to the
  note/background will require revision to meet
  needs if used. A note/background is part of the
  task description making the terms within
  searchable in DRRS JTIMs
