The Training System – WO1 Brad Doyle & WO1 Mick Reyne
‘[On] basic para-course… you must be consciously competent … because you're the only person who is going to pull the reserve handle if there is a malfunction at that stage.’ This week’s episode is centred on how we can improve the training that we deliver in units, making the most of the resource that we have to develop creative training from the individual to the collective. Our guests this week are WO1 Brad Doyle and WO1 Mick Reyne. WO1 Brad Doyle is the Command Sergeant Major (CSM) of Forces Command and WO1 Mick Reyne is the Training Warrant Officer - Army.
The Systems Approach to Defence Learning (SADL) is a tool that anyone designing or delivering training can use to ensure that the training that they deliver achieves the right outcomes and encourages continuous evaluation. It includes the ADDIE Cycle, which includes five steps: (1) analyse, (2) design, (3) develop, (4) implement, and (5) evaluate. Taking a skill from unskilled through to competent is done under supervision with the end goal of that individual being able to employ that skill safely in the workplace. This marks the transition point from individual to collective, where that skill must be practiced as part of a collective to proficient and then expert.
