VectorCSP designs and develops end-to-end training and human performance solutions from analysis of mission performance requirements to delivery of classroom or distance education. Our training design and development methodologies are based on proven Instructional Systems Design (ISD) techniques, with an added emphasis on producing measurable human performance outcomes.

Performance-Based Training Design

Beginning with a performance profile to ensure that the training program aligns with your organization's mission and goals, we examine all of the factors that affect personnel performance, including:

• Work environment, resources, and tools 

• Individual capacity 

• Motives and expectations

• Consequences, incentives, or rewards

• Data, information, and feedback

Skills and Knowledge

Based on our findings, we then design a specific and measurable performance intervention plan for your organization that maximizes performance and minimizes cost. This plan clearly identifies the scope, stakeholders, and performance objectives, and serves as a basis for instructional design, curriculum and instructional development.

Training Intervention Development

Using a combination of techniques including classroom curriculum, distance learning technology, and workplace job aids, our training systems are designed to maximize workforce performance. Our team employs state-of-the-art training development software and technology to develop cutting-edge courseware, simulations, instructor-led training, job aids, and assessment tests.

Human Performance Tools and Technology

The heart of the VectorCSP human performance system is a suite of analysis and instructional design/development methodologies and tools that are tightly integrated within a framework called PathFinder. PathFinder represents an innovative way to rapidly develop highly effective training programs, performance support materials, and assessments of training effectiveness at a lower total cost than with traditional tools and techniques.

Success Stories

Our Human Performance Systems team leader was the key architect of the Coast Guard's new performance-based training programs and policies. These innovative distance-learning programs were designed specifically to deploy a structured OJT approach that features a coaching/mentoring accountability system to ensure performance skills are achieved. This new distance learning system resulted in a dramatic increase in supervisory involvement in the planned professional development of personnel and the avoidance of having to expand classroom training resources. Most importantly, there was a measurable improvement in performance of the workforce. A testament to the program's success is that the courses are being used by the Coast Guard to train the Iraqi Defense Forces.

Recently, Coast Guard training centers have adopted components of our Pathfinder suite of training development software. The training centers are using the tools to produce end-of-course tests as well as servicewide examinations that are administered to all enlisted personnel in order to establish echelon rankings for promotion purposes.

Private Sector Experience

In addition to developing training systems for government, our team members have designed and produced successful distance-learning programs for private sector firms including Motorola, Dun & Bradstreet, Corel, and Yahoo!.
