• JTS Executive Summary
• Universal Joint Task List (UJTL)
• DOTMLPF Framework
• CJCS Guidance
• The Four Phases of JTS
• Joint Training Cycle

JTS EXECSUM
• The JTS embodies a systematic approach to assist CCDRs/Directors with
ensuring readiness levels are met through effective joint training
• Purpose of the JTS is to enable CCDRs, Services, and CSAs to define
their mission capability requirements, mitigate risk, make decisions, and
prioritize resources under the Chairman’s joint training policies
• The Joint Training Information Management System (JTIMS) is the joint
system of record that supports management of joint training programs
across all four JTS phases
– Phase I (Requirements) results in CCMD JMETL and CSA AMETL
– Phase II (Plans) results in CCMD and CSA JTPs
– Phase III (Execution) results in the execution of training events, and
identification of TPOs, TPEs, and validated observations
– Phase IV (Assessment) results in development of TPAs and MTAs,
lessons learned, themes, trends and threads, after action reports, and
issues requiring resolution outside of the command or CSA

Universal Joint Task List (UJTL)
• Doctrine - how we fight - underpins DOTMLPF
• Comes to life when converted into tasks and stored in a
library called the Universal Joint Task List (UJTL)
• 1300+ tasks in the UJTL (11 C-IED)
– Common joint denominator btw joint systems & processes
– Authoritative (based on joint doctrine, i.e., how we fight)
– Versatile; Used by all CCMDs, CSAs and Services to
 Identify essential mission requirements (Organize)
 Fill gaps that impede mission accomplishment (Train & Equip)
 Determine staffing (975)
 Assess readiness
– Include built-in metrics (MOPs/MOEs) Tailored to
mission.

CJCSM 3500.03E, Joint Training Manual
• JTS is an integrated, requirements-based, four-phased method for
aligning joint training with assigned missions, consistent with command
priorities and available resources
• Supported CCDR establishes most critical mission capability
requirements in the JMETL
– Mission analysis of tasks assigned through GEF, UCP, JSCP
– Communicated using approved UJTs
• CCDRs assess current capability against required capability; identify
training requirements; plan, resource and execute events; evaluate
training audience performance; and assess readiness
• CSAs supporting CCMD missions use JTS to plan, execute and assess
joint training programs based on METs and campaign plan requirements

7
JTS Phase I: Define Requirements
• Commander/Director-led staff process
• Relies on mission analysis to identify mission tasks and refine into most
essential mission capability requirements (METs)
– CSA Directors also consider strategic policy, supported CCMD guidance,
plans and METs to focus guidance to staff
• METL establishes direct connection between NMS, CCDR strategy,
assigned missions, OPLANs, and joint training responsibilities
• Includes force development and capability considerations
Phase I REQUIREMENTS
Identify capabilities required to
accomplish assigned mission.
Presented as tasks, conditions
and standards plus
organization.
Phase I Outputs:
Mission Essential Task List
Campaign Plans
CCMDs: JMETL
CSAs: AMETL
(no difference)

8
JTS Phase II: Plan
• CCDR/CSA Director training guidance and METL assessment drive
JTP development and individual learning plans
– Comprehensive plan of action to link assessment derived training requirements
with training events to accomplish objectives
• JTP includes training guidance, training objectives, events/exercises,
milestones, expenses, and joint solutions and capabilities designated
for inclusion into joint training events
• JTPs detail training resource requirements.
Phase II Outputs:
CCMD/CSA Joint Training Plan
Training/Exercise input to
campaign plans
Phase II PLANS
Determine training
requirements and
plan required training.

JTS Phase III: Execute
• Events planned in the JTP are conducted; training audience
performance is evaluated relative to specified TOs, and joint
capabilities are assessed
• CSA JTPs sometimes require stand-alone events, within the agency,
or may be incorporated into events conducted by CCMDs
• DOTMLPF issues and observations are also identified and captured
Phase III Outputs:
Task Performance Observations
Training Proficiency Evaluations

Commander’s Summary Report
Phase III EXECUTION
Finalize detailed event
planning and resource
scheduling.
Execute and evaluate
training events.

11
JTS Phase IV: Assess
• CCDR/Director responsibility
– “Is JIDA capable of accomplishing specific tasks?”
– “Can JIDA meet required performance standards for its assigned mission?”
• Assessment of training events, support to real world operations, and
engagement activities directly support determination of overall readiness
• Combined with annual METL review, forms foundation for next cycle
– Identifies performance shortfalls that shape future training requirements
– Measures ability to perform assigned missions
– Documents lessons learned
Phase IV Outputs:
Training Guidance
Training Proficiency Assessments
Mission Training Assessments
Validated Lessons Learned

Example: 102nd Civil Support Team METs
• Conduct Civil Support Tam (CST) Operations
• Deploy/Redeploy a Civil Support Team (CST)
• Establish and Maintain a Base of Operations
• Establish Civil Support Team (CST) Communication
• Conduct Interagency Coordination (CST)
• Conduct Civil Support Team (CST) Assessments
• Conduct CBRNE Analytical Functions (CST)
• Conduct a Civil Support Team (CST) CBRNE Survey
• Conduct Termination Planning (CST)
• Establish Civil Support Team (CST) Medical Support
102 CST used similar processes to establish its METL and identify
training requirements that ensure unit readiness.

CJCSM 3500.03E, Joint Training Manual
• DoD will use JTS in supporting the President’s National Exercise
Program (NEP) to address USG strategic- and policy-level
objectives; DoD participates in NEP via the Chairman’s Exercise
Program (CEP); CEP designed to improve readiness of US Forces
• Joint Exercise Program (JEP): principal means for CCDRs to
exercise contingency plans, support campaign plan engagement
activities based on capability described in JMETL, and support
theater/global security requirements
• Services conduct joint training to prepare Service forces to operate
as a member of joint force
• Joint Training Environment (JTE) replicates the operational env
necessary and sufficient to conduct joint force development
– Defined by conditions, circumstances and influences that affect
readiness and employment of capabilities
– Enables the CEP and JEP
