Abstract

The Defence Force School of Signals, as part of the Australian Defence Force, runs numerous leadership and trade courses throughout the year for both Regular and Reserve Defence Force members. These courses are designed to ensure that soldiers are suitably qualified and trained to sufficiently high standards so they can be used effectively in operational deployments (such as war or humanitarian operations). In order to maintain high quality training that is current and up-to date with the rapid inclusion of new technologies, strategies and techniques, constant evaluation and development of courses is conducted. The aim of the current paper is to detail the specific methodology used by the Defence Force School of Signals to evaluate and develop training packages.
