NWS Training Process NSTEP- National Strategic Training/Education Plan - FY 12 -13 National proposals/requirements process underway - Performance Needs Statements for Training - Development - Implementation - Continuous Improvement - Interfaces/handshakes with OSIP, AWIPS, OAR, NESDIS - Requirements can come from service/program managers, HQs, WFOs, RFCs, National Centers, OAR, DHS, NESDIS - POCs: Tony, Brian

NSTEP Cycle Analyze Performance Needs Implementation Plan: Design/Develop Training Evaluate LMS Track via NOAA LMS

NWS Training National Systems and Implementations • documentation, prototyping, testing • operational implementation • reviews, assessments, evaluations • current example: Dual-Polarization Deployment • familiarization workshops • operational forecaster assessment and evaluation • training needs assessment • content for SOOs in COMET COMAP • outreach to WCMs, EMs and Broadcasters • best practices for operational use

Training vs Information/Doc Training: a special form of communication/instruction that carefully and deliberately focuses attention on needed job tasks, skills, and knowledge for real-time operational decision-making. Complete training covers: • essential knowledge • proven operational applications • decision making Summative evaluations for critical training are (not weather-only) simulations requiring substantial depth-of-knowledge application to forecast and warning decision-making process. Testbeds/proving grounds provide value when demonstrated improvements are “operationalized” to real-world constraints.
