Abstract There are probably more glamorous subjects to read about, but this one is important to everything we do every day in the Army: standards. There is a standard established for every task that we do in the course of our daily efforts. But how do we determine the correct standard. In the engineer field, this is done by the Collective Training Division (CTD) at the United States Army Engineer School. Anyone out in the field who has not visited the Engineer School may have no idea about what CTD does. Since individuals in CTD are either retired or active duty military, they consider the same questions you have. Training management in today s modular Army is confusing to many, and regardless of the technologies available, most people are too busy to spend their time looking for the latest and greatest items available. The biggest problems for training management seem to be Who does what. Where do I find it. Whom can I talk to. What is the phone number. For example, a unit executive officer had been searching for collective task outlines for more than a month when he stumbled onto a link to CTD, allowing us to quickly steer him in the right direction for all of his training management needs. The first question Who does what is easy; answers to the remaining questions above can be addressed to the telephone contact or at the online site at the end of this article.
