
JFT (Joint Force Trainer)
Directions and Guidance (D&G) for NATO E&T
Coordinates with SHAPE to propose RAs
Appoints DHs (in cooperation with RA)
Receives reports from annual Discipline Conference
and provides D&G in response
◦ Supports development of SAGE
◦ Reacts on recommendations from RA/DH and
provides D&G if necessary
◦
◦
◦
◦
◦ Sets standards for QA-Process
19

JETE (Joint Education, Training and Exercises
Division)
◦ Coordinates E&IT processes
◦ Supports developments of STPs, TRAs and TNAs
◦ Provides assistance to Nations if requested
◦ Provides experts to organize/lead the accreditation
process
20

RA
◦ Gathers, defines and prioritizes the operational
requirements
◦ Defines NATO’s Level of Ambitions (LoA) for his
discipline
◦ Gives D&G to DH on desired end state of E&T within
his area of responsibility
◦ Keeps DH updated (concepts, doctrine, policy,
procedures)
◦ Reviews requirements and capabilities annually
◦ Establishes links to RA’s and DH’s where disciplines
influence each other, overlap or connect closely
21

DH
◦ Supports STP and TRA with expertise
◦ Leads TNA for identified training gaps (needs to
establish internal expertise to conduct TNA’s)
◦ Establishes programme within subject
◦ Conducts annual Discipline Conference
◦ Recommends changes to RA
◦ Does not need to conduct training itself
◦ Does not give directions to training institutions


STP (Strategic Training Plan)
◦ Provides an holistic overview over a subject
encompassing individual training, collective
training, Key Leader Training and exercises
◦ Aims to provide D&G for implementation of new
capability or solution to operational shortfall
◦ Define NATO’s level of ambition for the
field/discipline
◦ Link with NATO’s high level strategic objectives
STP
27

TRA (Training Requirement Analysis)
◦ Based upon approved STP
◦ Aims at operationalizing the capability by
identifying training gaps (Definition of the levels to
be trained (pol-mil, strat, ops, tac) and matching
this with the current training inventory)
◦ Outcome: a) definition of levels to be trained
b) decision upon Depth of Knowledge
c) Inventory of existing courses
d) gap Analysis
TRA
28

TNA (Training Needs Analysis)
◦ Based on result (Training gaps) of TRA
◦ Specify requirements for trainings to fill identified
gaps
◦ Design and development of course
◦ Conduct and validation of course
