Two Automated Apprenticeship Training (AAT) courses were developed for Air Force Security Police Law Enforcement and Security specialists. The AAT was a systematized audio-visual approach to self-paced job training employing an easily operated teaching device. AAT courses were job specific and based on a behavioral task analysis of the two Security Police speciality areas. AAT graduates were compared with graduates of comparable Airmen Basic Resident courses and Career Development Courses by Aptitude Group design. Evaluation criteria included a job specific performance test, an apprentice knowledge test, and supervisor's ratings. Results indicated superior scores for the AAT graduates on all three. AAT reduced the dependence on reading skills, and this, combined with the self-paced and audiovisual features, aided training of low aptitude trainees without penalizing those of higher aptitude. Trainee manhour requirements were lowered 30% and supervisory manhours 70%. Lastly instructors preferred the AAT courses and easily integrated them into training programs. (Author/PB)
