Keep training records on your personnel as long as they are assigned to your unit. You may prepare training plans, schedules, and records by typing, handwriting, or using an automatic data processing (ADP) or word processing system. Individual commands or type commanders, as appropriate, may specify the retention period for training plans and records. Training plans should be retained long enough to assist with planning for the training cycle.

SUMMARY The more senior a petty officer, the greater are his or her responsibilities for training. As a second class petty officer, you need to know various techniques for conducting a proper and effective training program. You must understand the importance of effective training. Inadequate training practices can affect the operational readiness and performance of your command. Various features and requirements make a unit’s training program efficient and effective. The three basic features are compatibility, instruction and evaluation, and analysis. The basic requirements of effective training include dynamic instruction, positive leadership, personal interest, quality control, technical support, and regular training schedules. For a training program to be positive and effective, it must meet those requirements. Training is more effective if conducted in small groups. The most effective training method is an in-house training program tailored to the needs of your command. The different types of in-house training methods include orientation, on-the-job, refresher, and career or professional development. Other instructional techniques include lectures, discussions, and demonstrations. Give lectures when you are teaching a large volume of informa- tion. Begin class discussions to get trainees to interact. Use the demonstration method to teach skills. You will find the use of a lesson summary, oral questioning, and training aids helpful in most situations. Once you set up a unit training program, routinely schedule and plan training. Become familiar with long-range and short-range training 5-16 Figure 5-10.-Example of training record.
