RAND Arroyo Center Research Brief: Improving Training Efficience: Lessons from the Total Army School System

摘要

The U.S. Army has launched a series of initiatives to streamline and consolidate its extensive system of training institutions. One important objective has been to achieve cost economies while ensuring high-quality training, thus laying the foundation for a 'Total Army School System' (TASS) that is more efficient and integrated across Army components (active and reserve). In Resources, Costs, and Efficiency of Training in the Total Army School System, researchers Michael C. Shanley, John D. Winkler, and Paul S. Steinberg present the final results for one major area in the assessment- resource use and efficiency of training both inside and outside a new prototype regional school system established by the Army in the southeastern region of the United States in the mid-1990s.
