USJFCOM PrioritiesMaking Irregular Warfare a Core Competency

USJFCOM Joint Irregular Warfare CenterEstablish a program for small unit excellence

Enhancing Joint Command and ControlJoint Command and Control Vision

Approach C2 holistically, leader-centric and net-enabledFacilitate initiative and decision-making at the lowest level Operate in a C2 degraded environment

Improving as a Joint Force ProviderBetter Global Force Management database & technology toolsExpand existing high-demand and grow new capabilities

Accelerating Efforts Toward a Whole of Government ApproachIncrease Interagency participation in exercises and trainingSupport DoD and Interagency expeditionary capability

Building and Improving Partnership CapacityImproving Training and Education

Joint Professional Military EducationEmphasis on human, cultural, language, and cognitive skills

UNCLASSIFIED 4

Manage the integrated joint training architectures using the DoDArchitecture framework and in coordination with the combatant commanders; develop and define standards for live, virtual and constructive training capabilities, including technical development, capabilities prioritization, implementation, configuration control, and sustainment; and enforce standards through a certification process. (DoD Directive 1322.18, Military Training, 3 September 2004)

Leading the development and operation of joint training systems and architectures that directly support the combatant commanders, Services, and defense agencies. (Unified Command Plan 2008)

Characteristics that can make a difference:• Measurement and assessment of human performance is the

centerpiece, not simply an ancillary benefit to help rationalize an investment. Provides the critical standard upon which “black boxes” will be evaluated.

• Immersive, decision-making stimuli infinitely repeatable though nothing exactly repeated that was done before.

• Modular to introduce increasing variables of complexity within changeable environments (to include conventional, nuclear, and irregular war).

• Stresses tactical and ethical decision making leading to overallindividual and small unit self-confidence. Open ended objectives…not merely electronic lane training. Challenges Cold War era Task-Condition-Standard construct.

UNCLASSIFIED 13

Characteristics that can make a difference (cont.):• Replicates joint enablers such as ISR and joint fires (air and

ground) when used at home station, and can integrate these live enablers in real-time for mission planning/rehearsal in combat.

• Ensures distributed integration of joint capabilities -- designed with standard architectures to ensure interoperability with other systems. (A virtual F-22 at Langley AFB, Virginia “flying” in support of a Marine infantry squad negotiating the Infantry Immersive Trainer at Camp Pendleton, California).

• Easily transitioned to the field. Same capability used at home station and in combat. Small, lightweight, transportable.

• Evidence-based. Results measurable and can be correlated to return on investment. Diagnostic baseline...objective measurement / assessment.
