Governing Policy (GP) 2.8 – Training and Training EquipmentScopeRequirementTraining is a discrete Defence Line of Development (DLoD) Project teams are responsible for the development, delivery and maintenance of a coherent and appropriate solution (which may include training) in support of their equipment / capability/service. Project teams should consider the full breadth of the Training DLoD
Development ActivitiesAll MOD individual training should be developed in accordance with the Defence Systems Approach to Training Quality Standard (DSAT QS) as expressed in JSP 822 Given a clearly understood capability requirement and recognition that training is part of the solution to deliver capability, Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is the DSAT QS mechanism that is recommended for determining the most efficient training solution. TNA is the endorsed tool for underpinning the Business Case in the acquisition of training equipment and services. Guidance on the conduct of TNA is signposted within JSP 822 and can be found in Defence Training Support Manual 3 (DTSM 3). Unless otherwise indicated in the scoping phase of the TNA, opportunities to increase the use of embedded or synthetic training and e-learning should be considered along with:
The TNA will also support development in other DLoDs:
The future integration of simulators for combined and joint training is an important consideration in the acquisition of technological training solutions. Further details on Training Facilities and Simulators and the acquisition community’s 3 separate specialist Training teams (Joint Battlefield Trainers Simulations Synthetic Environments (JBTSE), Flight Simulations and Synthetic Trainers (FsAST) and Maritime Training Systems (MTS) is available on the AOF. DeliverablesA training solution encompasses all of the resources and provisions required to deliver the right number of appropriately trained personnel at the right time to ensure that the subject equipment / capability / service can meet the Operational Requirement. The output deliverables of the TNA will form the basis of the training plan and be used to identify:
The identification of training material and equipment requirements to meet maintainer and operator training needs are outputs from the TNA and must be included in the Whole Life Cost. ApplicabilityThis Governing Policy (GP) is applicable to all Projects procuring or supporting new or legacy equipment, systems or procedures that require training for operators and maintainers.

Compliance Tool – Evidence RequirementsThe Evidence Requirements for this GP can be found within the SSE Compliance Tool. The adopted Support Solution is to provide specific evidence in order to achieve compliance with the needs of this GP. Variations from this evidence set may be possible and should be discussed with the Subject Matter Experts (SME) or the relevant Support Solutions Officer (SSO) at the earliest opportunity. Any risks associated with this variance will be agreed with the Key Support Area (KSA) Owner’s representative and for the project team to manage or mitigate.
