This thesis presents a methodology to determine the training measures of effectiveness for divisional engineer battalions. The evolution of the present Army training system and the divisional engineer battalion's structure are discussed. The representation of engineer critical tasks as networks and an analysis of the tasks' training measures of performance are developed. The analysis of the measures of effectiveness determined by the interaction of training and hardware measures of performance in a combat model provides the transition from training performance to combat effectiveness. The tasks network representation; the combat model and recommended changes and additions to the present training system are combined to form a proposed training management system.
