AFI13-113V1 15 JUNE 2005

5.1. General. All TACP/ASOC UTC-tasked/SORTS-reportable personnel will attain CMR status. Commanders certify CMR status with a signed memo for record or MAJCOM approved automated product (i.e. AF IMT 1098), which will be filed in the individuals training folder. 5.2. CMR Requirements. 5.2.1. Combat Mission Ready (CMR) is the status awarded to an individual who completes IQT, MQT, is fully qualified on all MTL items, and is certified by the commander. 5.2.2. Once an individual is certified CMR, the individual is required to maintain proficiency based on identified task measurement standard for each MTL and duty position task. 5.2.3. Group commanders certify squadron commanders CMR upon completion of training. 5.3. Training Task Decertification and Non-Combat Mission Ready Status. 5.3.1. Commanders and supervisors may decertify individuals on specific training tasks, without loss of CMR status, for failure to meet task measurement standards using the following process: 5.3.1.1. Task decertification will be annotated on AF IMT 1098 (or approved automated product) and placed in the individuals training folder. 5.3.1.2. TMs, through the individuals supervisor, will notify the unit commander of an individuals task decertification and include a proposed plan to regain certification. 5.3.1.3. Commanders determine if the decertified task(s) warrant placing an individual in Non-Combat Mission Ready (N-CMR) status. N-CMR status will be documented with a signed memo for record or MAJCOM approved automated product (i.e. AF IMT 1098), and will be filed in the individuals training folder. 5.4. Training Task Recertification and Regaining Combat Mission Ready Status. 5.4.1. Training task recertification is accomplished IAW the plan created/approved by the TM, supervisor, and commander. Recertification is complete when the individual demonstrates sufficient knowledge or skill to perform the decertified task with the trainer/certifier to the required standard and a signed memo for record or MAJCOM approved automated product (i.e. AF IMT 1098) with the commanders endorsement is placed in the individuals training folder. 5.4.2. N-CMR individuals must re-qualify on all MTL items and demonstrate proficiency based on identified task measurement standard for each MTL and duty position task under the supervision of a trainer/certifier. Trainer/certifier will work with the TM and individuals supervisor to tailor a training plan for each individual. If the N-CMR individuals training plan requires being re-entered into MQT, a comprehensive duty position task evaluation should be accomplished. Commanders recertify CMR status with a signed memo for record or MAJCOM approved automated product (i.e. AF IMT 1098), which will be filed in the individuals training folder.

AFI13-113V1 15 JUNE 2005 Chapter 6 CONTINUATION TRAINING

6.1. General. This chapter prescribes training standards to maintain CMR personnel qualified on critical peacetime and wartime knowledge, skills, and tasks, as approved by unit commanders. 6.2. Annual Training Period. CT requirements are conducted on an annual basis using a sliding calendar. Events requiring semi-annual currency must be conducted every six months. Events requiring annual currency must be accomplished once every 12 months. 6.2.1. Semi-annual training example. An individual who accomplishes a task required every six months on 28 December 2004, must re-accomplish that task by midnight, 27 June 2005. 6.2.2. Annual training example. An individual who accomplishes an annual training item 1 January 2005 must re-accomplish that event by midnight, 31 December 2005. 6.3. Training Events. CT requirements will be a combination of unit generated events and computer-based training. 6.3.1. The TM will incorporate a CT plan into the unit training OI using training Table 4.1., Table 4.2., and Table 4.3. and appropriate CFETPs. Task evaluations as prescribed by paragraph 4.2.1.1. are considered part of the CT requirements. 6.3.2. TACTICS will be used for all TACP/ASOC computer-based CT requirements (see Chapter 7). For those training areas not presently in TACTICS, Group and/or MAJCOM developed training plans will be used until those areas appear in TACTICS. Each academic training task will require successful completion of an examination (80 percent minimum to pass). Use testing to validate qualification to the maximum extent possible throughout the training program. 6.3.2.1. Units must use TACTICS when the academic training module is available on the system. Refer to paragraph 4.2.6. for Level II access requirements. 6.3.3. Unit commanders will decide if failure to complete all CT requirements warrants the individual to be placed on N-CMR status. Commanders should base their decision on the number of requirements not completed, any training program/schedule adjustments done IAW paragraph 2.3., and impact on unit mission. 6.3.4. For joint terminal attack controllers, refer to AFI 13-112, Volume 1. 6.4. Task Evaluations. To satisfy CT, all personnel will receive task evaluations every two years on all tasks identified in the unit MTL with associated task performance levels. The MTL will be listed in the unit training OI. All 1C4X1 personnel will comply with paragraph 4.2.1.1. 6.5. Regaining CMR Status. Unit TM will recertify individuals IAW paragraph 5.4. 6.6. Documentation. Completed training tasks for officer and enlisted, on AF IMT 1098, or approved automated product. These documents will be kept in the individuals training folders or JTAC Evaluation Folders (Training Jacket).

THEATER AIR CONTROL TRAINING INFORMATION COMPUTER SYSTEM 7.1. General. The Theater Air Control Training Information Computer System (TACTICS) has been developed to enhance the training needs of the TACP and ASOC community. The intent of TACTICS is to provide members with global, standardized, web-based training, and the ability to track this training. TACTICS is located on the Internet at http://www.tactics-training.com/. 7.1.1. TACTICS provides the user with access to online courseware, and the ability to record courses and tests taken offline from the training tables. Users also have access to the Power Point presentations associated with each course, including full course notes as well as all non-restricted references and a glossary of terms. 7.1.2. Access into TACTICS is divided into three separate areas: Super User, Level II and Student. Super User access is reserved for administrative use only. Level II access is an administrative level for users that allows them to enter assigned personnel into the TACTICS system and to track unit/individual progress. Level II use is regulated by ACC/DOYC, with inputs from the other MAJCOMs, and will be granted only to accommodate the level of view necessary to perform assigned duties. Typically, the Level II users are the Unit Training Managers, but can include higher ranking officers with a need-to-know. Student is the standard user level that allows a member to take tests and view their individual progress only. 7.2. Training in TACTICS. Training in TACTICS is accomplished through units known as Modules. One Module is approximately one hour of online training, which can translate to 4-6 hours of formal classroom instruction. Each module is followed by a mandatory test and a criterion checklist, when applicable. Test formats are either true-or-false, or multiple choice, and test questions are randomly generated each time. TACTICS tests are designed to be taken in an open book format. Visual cues give the learner immediate indication of which modules they have not attempted, attempted and failed, or completed successfully. 7.2.1. All user scores are stored and maintained, as well as the individual answers to each question, so a user may go back and review those questions they missed. If the user is unsuccessful in accomplishing a test, they are not allowed to view their responses and must review the training material. However, if the person passes the test but has missed one or two questions, they will be allowed to review the correct responses and the associated references. Supervisors are notified via e-mail of a subordinates progress (pass/fail) through the training modules. 7.3. Responsibilities for TACTICS. The responsibilities for use of TACTICS are as follows: 7.3.1. ACC/DOYC will: 7.3.1.1. Be responsible for overall control and management of the TACTICS system. 7.3.1.2. Grant, upon request, Level II access for TACTICS on a need-to-have basis. 7.3.1.3. Provide direction and prioritization of module production. 7.3.2. Commanders will: 7.3.2.1. Ensure that TACTICS is instituted and operated at unit level.

AFI13-113V1 15 JUNE 2005 7.3.2.2. Utilize TACTICS to track individual/unit training status. 7.3.3. Level II/Administrators will: 7.3.3.1. Ensure that personnel are knowledgeable of TACTICS.

23

7.3.3.2. Ensure that incoming personnel are registered in the TACTICS system and that their personnel information is correct. 7.3.3.3. Upon PCS, transfer personnel registered in the TACTICS departing the unit to their gaining unit. 7.3.3.4. Track individual/unit training progress and report to the commander any negative trends. 7.3.3.5. Use their chain of command to request any upgrades to Level II access. 7.3.3.6. Contact technical support at techsupport@odysseyconsult.com, if problems operating TACTICS occur. 7.3.4. Standard Users/Students will: 7.3.4.1. Upon PCS, contact the gaining Unit Training Manager to ensure that their registration in TACTICS was transferred. 7.3.4.2. Maintain current e-mail addresses for themselves and their supervisor in the TACTICS system (This is a priority). 7.3.4.3. Maintain current Student Profile information. 7.3.4.4. Read the system messages each time they login to stay aware of course additions and updates. 7.3.4.5. Contact technical support at techsupport@odysseyconsult.com if problems operating TACTICS occur.
