EU BG Training Needs Analysis and Serious Gaming

Ulf Björkman


OutlineTraining Needs Analysis (TNA) EU BG

• Task• Aim

• Method

• Gap analysis• Operational requirements

• Training requirements

• Example: Serious Gaming


Aim of Project

A mapping of training gaps (TNA) on the national, nordic and europeanlevels to perform simulated and integrated training of the EU BGincluding recommended solutions.

• Survey of existing abilities for simulated and integrated training

• Identification of training gaps (deficiencies in ability – nationally, among Nordic countries and on the European level(s)

• Proposals or recommendations to operative, tactical and technological solutions for the short-term (2008) as well as the long-term (2010-)

• Close interaction with project BG-OCD

Conclusions Operational Tasks Analysis

• Act according to Rules-of-Engagement (ROE)

• Complex chain-of-command

• Force readiness Frustration

• Show-of-force

• New conscript system

• Insecure transports, criminality & terrorism

• Small unit & large operational area

• Framework nation

Phase 2:




4. Final Report


Act according to Rules-of-Engagement (ROE)

• Crisis Management Operation (CMO) according to EU Battle Group concept

• “Three-block-war”

EU BG TASKS:• Separation Of Parties by Force (SOPF)• Stabilisation, Reconstruction and Military Advice to third countries (SR)• Conflict Prevention (CP)• Evacuation Operation in a non permissive environment (EO)• Assistance to Humanitarian Operations (HA)

All these tasks may contribute to fight against terrorism, including supporting third countries in combating terrorism in their territories


Complex chain-of-command

• International training in parallel with BG

• Parallel political decisions

• BG HQ• English

• Int. command

• NGO

• Local admin.


Force readiness Frustration

Anställer soldater i beredskap

”Det är en större skillnad än många tror. Det är inte en samling människor som tvingas ut med pliktlag utan mycket professionella soldater som kommer ställa krav på att det de får göra riktigt och korrekt.

De är dessutom svårare att utbilda eftersom de kräver ett högre tempo och ligger på en hög nivå redan från början.

Det är inte så svårt att utbilda från noll, men nu ska vi utbilda människor som säkert redan varit ute som soldat internationellt. Det måste vi ta hand om på ett bra sätt.”

Johan Fölstad, Försvarets Forum 3;2005

• Professional soldiers

• Standby - the norm?


Show-of-Force

• Escalating scenarios

• Highly mobile units requires support• Close Air Support/ Forward Air

Controller

• Heavier combat vehicles

Conclusions Training Gap Analysis

• C4I Embedded Training System -sustaining operational effect

• Balance between operational requirements and production conditions

• Requirements on interoperability from a training perspective

• Training during mission – sustaining capabilities

• Outsourcing of training and support – focusing on core capabilities

• Certification/verification of capabilities – a matter of confidence
