• Joint Forces Command (JFC): who it is; what they do; and why    
• JFC: defining the training requirement and standards   
• How we train    
• The role of simulation in our training: 'how much is enough'; is it all about cost?; 'what can't it do'; the future - level of ambition

• A policy perspective of the historical trends and drivers for increased use of simulation and the challenges and opportunities.
• An operational perspective of the strengths and weaknesses of live and simulation-based training and mission preparation based on experience from Joint and Combined operations in Afghanistan and Libya

• Present and future requirements
• NATO for the next 10 years working with the Smart Defence and Connected Forces Initiative (CFI) principals,
• Delivering quality education and training using a mixture of online SCORM compliant courses as well as immersive learning
• An outline their progress, challenges and successes

• Leader development and the internalization of the Army as a Profession through the ranks continue as top priorities for the US Army. 
• CAPE, the Center for the Army Profession and Ethic, has embraced the use of Virtual Experience Immersive Learning Simulation (VEILS) to deliver this training to the force. 
• During this presentation we will demonstrate the pedagogy of VEILS and enable the audience to experience “A Special Trust”, the newest VEILS, targeting Stewardship of the Army as a Profession at the strategic leader level.

• ELITE:  Leader development with Virtual Humans
• UrbanSIM: Mission Command using Social Simulation
• SimCoach: Web-accessible Coaching for Post Traumatic Stress Injuries
• Emerging technologies that will change how immersive training is delivered

• Revolutionizing the method by which humans and robots communicate will enable effective and efficient cooperation for optimized mission performance.
• A direct input for implicit communication is that of human physiological response, measured using Electroencephalogram (EEG), Electrocardiogram (ECG), functional Near-Infrared (fNIR), Transcranial Doppler Sonography (TCD), and Eye Tracking, to cognitive or emotional state changes.
• Low, medium, and high workload profiles will be determined for creating a closed-loop system in which the robot's behaviour will adapt according to workload state needs.
