Their problem is that their ships take a minimum compliment of sailors aboard and for that reason, they can't train when they are aboard. However, they have to report for duty being fully familiar with the shipboard systems and the ship itself. (0:26) We can train sailors completely in an immersive environment and certify them. (0:31) The LCS program team is made of up of experienced instructional systems designers, game-development software engineers, 3D artists, industrial organizational psychologists, and retired Navy subject matter experts. (0:44) The training program provides comprehensive, immersive training for LCS watch standards and maintainers. The uniqueness of this solution lies in the ability to present an entirely new environment through implementing revolutionary control methods, which improves training time and familiarity within the space they are required to complete tasks. (1:02) The program combines the best features of computer based training and on the job training while removing limitations and instructional shortcomings. The program is designed to improve training effectiveness while reducing training cost and time. (1:14) All initial training takes place in a safe, controlled and realistic environment.
