OVERVIEW:  When the United States Army and Air Force needed a comprehensive training curriculum for their C-130J Joint Cargo Aircraft Program (JCA) and UH-60M helicopter operations.

 

SOLUTION: The solution was to deliver a complete learning curriculum that set new standards for military aviation training excellence both academically and on the flight line. Leading a cross-functional team of 17 instructional systems designers, subject matter experts, and doctrine writers over a two-year design and development cycle, we created an intensive, four-phase academic and flightline training program totaling over 240 hours of instruction for Load Masters and Pilots. The curriculum integrated complex technical procedures, safety protocols, and operational doctrine into a cohesive learning experience that prepared aviators for real-world mission demands. 

 

RESULT: The program's success and innovation led to an invitation to present on learning and development strategies and 21st-century soldier competencies to the United States Army Aviation Leadership Council at Fort Novosel (formally Fort Rucker), demonstrating how strategic training development directly contributes to national defense readiness and operational superiority.
