TRAINING SYSTEMS

Core Competencies

Training systems, courseware, schoolhouse operations, education, and career development comprise TSM’s training core. Within each venue, TSM has dedicated professionals engaged in energizing Department of Defense personnel through targeted education and training. TSM’s Career Development Systems^® utilizes the 3-D Process: Design, Develop, Deliver System^® to show you how to accelerate your organization and career, by starting from a strategic perspective, through molding of your operational perspective, and finally to the tactical perspective required to accomplish your goals. Formal courses of instruction are available for operators and maintainers in web-based training (WBT), computer-based training (CBT), and mediated interactive lectures. Whether you need a complete training system or just a single course, TSM delivers.

ELEMENTS

Career Development
The key to gaining a sustainable competitive advantage is obtaining, developing, and then retaining the thinking skills of your best employees. A robust workforce strategy is built on attracting the right people, hiring them, placing your gained talent in positions where they help achieve business objectives, and then retaining them. TSM’s 3-D Process: Design, Develop, Deliver System^® will set you on the path to higher profits and lower employee turnover.

Training Systems
Emerging technology drives training requirements for operators and maintainers to support fielded systems. TSM is currently working with the US Marine Corps to develop a training system for the Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle (EFV). This training system, as well as others developed by TSM, including the C-130T, EP-3E, and SH-60B aircraft , involves engineering, cost analysis, acquisition support, system design and development, test and evaluation, delivery, and, in some cases, facility design and construction. Our training systems employ an array of methods and media, including schoolhouse and Distance Learning (DL) with worldwide connectivity.

Schoolhouse Operations
Where a brick and mortar learning environment is needed, TSM offers turn-key products and processes. Working closely with Chief of the Navy Reserve, we are completing a specialized schoolhouse for Navy Reserves with a 500-student annual throughput. The school will offer operator training for C-130, C-9, and C-40 aircraft with ground school, level D flight simulators, and flight syllabus. Schoolhouse innovations will include e-classrooms, self-paced WBT/CBT, and crew coordination training.

Courseware Development
Today TSM develops the most sophisticated level IV WBT available. Creating a new benchmark for DL, we have designed and fielded training courses involving troubleshooting and circuit analysis to enable budding technicians to become proficient without attending a formal brick and mortar school. Our 21st Century approach avoids the cost of building and staffing a schoolhouse while simultaneously allowing students to engage in a real-world work environment to practice what they learn in real time.

Education
The Naval Postgraduate School has retained TSM to support DL at the Trident Training Facility for its Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree program for nuclear trained officers. This program is designed to accelerate the best and brightest in their career advancement and professional goals.
