1. April 28, 2006 Core Plus Pilot Program

2. Core Plus Logistics Pilot Program (Trailblazer) SCOPE: DAU and AT&L workforce wide applicability DESCRIPTION: The “Core Plus” certification model is a concept which would transform the current certification model to one in which members of the AT&L workforce would have the same foundation of training, i.e., a “Core” acquisition certification, a “ Core” functional certification, discretionary “ Job Competency ” requirements, and sub-specialty “Performance Qualification” certifications. (See next chart for picture worth a 1000 words) PARTICIPANTS: – Dr. McMichael, VP – Garry Shafovaloff, AWCM Director – Bill Erie, CDSC Director – Randy Fowler, Logistics Director – George Prosnik, Engineering Director – Judith Bayliss, ISD

3. DAU Transformation… Reshaping our Learning Architecture Shaping an Engaged Learner

4. Performance Qualifications Core Plus – Further Explanation Performance Qualifications Common acquisition foundational knowledge and skills Career field foundational knowledge and skills Other functional and cross- functional point-of-need training (assignment specific, frequently CLMs) Specialization “badges” earned via experience and training – functional and broadener types

5. Contribution to Corporate DAU and/or AT&L Core Plus advances the AT&L Competency Management Model – The right learning – better focus – The right people – focused on competency needs – The right time – better connection to job needs Core Plus minimizes “scrap” learning by eliminating – Wasted or irrelevant content – students who don’t need it – Wrong time – students forget by the time they need it Core Plus helps implement DAU concept of the “Engaged Learner” – Embraces life long learning – Shorter DAWIA courses – Increased assignment specific work – Increases modular course content

6. Current Project Status Exploring and refining alternative concepts among DAU principals advancing Socializing with external stakeholders (e.g., FIPT, DACMs, AT&L WMG, SSB) Advancing integration with universal DAU competency management (CNA effort) Performing business case analysis Accomplished conceptualization of application to Life Cycle Logistics Level I – III certification Completed identification of potential LCL performance qualification badges Proposed LCL Level I certification concept for DAU FY 2007 catalog

7. Migration to Core Plus will be spiral roll-out Technical architecture and infrastructure will be challenging Universal competency management strategy necessary Inter-career field balancing essential Workforce adoption issues remain (AWCM) Preliminary Findings

14. Core Plus Business Case Faculty time/cost Student time/cost Performance/output Curriculum executability/cost

15. Core Plus Business Case (Level I) Value Proposition : Offer more: increase available training from 80 to 167 hours Demand less: mandatory training decreased from 80 to 76 hours Target job competencies: expect careerists to select 4 CLMs, on average Deepen and demonstrate credentials: performance qualifications in essentials Enable life cycle management capabilities: make integrated enablers, not stovepiped obstructionists
