… subsequent guidance from LTG Chilcoat … subsequent guidance from VADM Gaffney • Write a campaign execution plan (w/detailed resource summary) • Plan for execution of the first class on 1 June 2001 • June 01 implementation unrealistic • Implement Beta test at 4 sites during FY01 Mission Statement & Guidance Develop a strategy to teach at the Unified Commands/ MDW an AFSC-like JPME program on “joint matters” to RC field grade officers who will serve as augmentees to Combatant Command JTF and CAT staffs to ensure that these officers arrive at Combatant Command HQs fully prepared with the required joint staff officer competencies.
Background • Mar 98 … AFSC develops “RC enhanced JPME” for ASD-RA …”bookend” approach not resourced • Oct 99 … AFSC develops four RC JPME options for NDU and J7MED … not resourced • May 00 … AFSC tasked to develop RC JPME strategy … CONPLAN w/resources provided • Jun 00 … AFSC tasked to develop OPORD to implement an RC JPME program by 1 Jun 01 • Jul 00 … site visits, mission analysis • Aug 00 … Beta test at 4 sites in FY01 • Sep 00 … final plan to NDU-P and Joint Staff
RCJPME Imperatives • AFSC’s proposed 237-hr RC JPME program compares very favorably to the 350-hr resident JPME-II ... • 34 lessons combined resident -- 127 hrs (3 IDT and 1 ADT period) • 56 lessons using DL media -- 110 hrs • RC JPME will require a separate school ... using many functions already resourced at AFSC • The plan can be phased over a 38-month period • While the RC JPME lessons are based on resident courseware, all 90 RC JPME lessons must be rewritten … 18 months to complete DL lesson conversion alone • Costs: $15M for 10 teams and $4M per year sustainment
Concept The AFSC strategy is to implement the plan in phases … building, assessing, and expanding the scope of RC JPME: PhaseTitleDurationConcept I Planning 4 months Confirm mission II Preparation 18-24 months • Receive resources & Beta test • Develop courseware • Execute Beta at up to 4 sites III Resident Pilot 14 months • Run JFCOM pilot at AFSC followed by pilots at Beta sites • Stand-up remaining teams IV Sustainment . . . 10 teams -- sustained

RC JPME Joint Education Branch Apparent Internal Conflicts • Start Point: Hire of 4 SME’s or contract conversion of Joint Planners Course? • Faculty: Title X Civilian or Service RC Officers? RC Officers teach JPOC or RC JPME? • Curriculum: JPOC or JPC? • Joint Learning Objectives: Nine or Fifteen? • AFSC-RC Acculturation: Prejudge RC attitudes or sense RC Missions? AFSC a C4 technology focal point or “ADL Collaborative” participant? • Strategic Vision: Institution Centered or Network Centered, with Access to all available Joint Education?
