CAE Catalyst – Defense & Security Podcast

Global defence forces are grappling with evolving challenges; one of which being a loss of warning time for personnel and the shortage of skilled instructors. In this episode, we discuss breakthrough studies in training and synthetic instruction that translate into better preparation in graduates and advanced levels of training. Host:Dr. Regan J Patrick, Chief Learning Officer, CAE Defense & Security Guests:Dr. Gary Eves, Principal Technology Officer, CAE AustraliaDr. Sandro Scielzo, Human Systems Technical Authority, CAE Defense & Security

As global defence forces are seeking to introduce new platforms and systems to enhance mission performance and training throughput, the C-130 platform remains an advantageous workhorse to successfully navigate threats and operate in critical deployments. In the first of many podcasts examining the Indo-Pacific region, our team analyses CAE’s long-standing support to C-130J operations and potential to optimise training and capability within Australia. Rodrigo Osorio, Business Development Manager - Aerospace, CAE Defence & Security.Justin Cook, CAE Defence & Security – Indo-Pacific, Air Mobility Program Manager.Daryl Hopton, CAE Defence & Security – Indo-Pacific, Maintenance Manager – C-130J

Evolving environments and global threats are forcing defense and security organizations around the world to reconsider long-held beliefs about technical skills training. In our previous CAE Catalyst podcasts, we’ve discussed the growing imperative for defense training organizations to make significant changes to their instructional approaches and tools. Today, we’ll explore some of the benefits strong military and industry partnerships offer in addressing these training challenges. Commercial training service providers bring a powerful arsenal of thought leadership and experience to address current challenges as well as future transformation requirements.Training, Adaptive Learning, Modernization, Military modernization, digital innovation, defense, DoD, technology, innovation, simulation, instructional design, education, military, defense training, machine learning, artificial intelligence, synthetic environments, data analytics, biometricsRegan Patrick, Chief Learning Officer, CAE Defense & SecurityMatthew Sibree, Managing Director, Indo-Pacific, Defense & Security, CAEPhilippe Perey, Head of Technology, Defense & Security, CAE

As global defense organizations face what many have referred to as, “the most dangerous decade” since the Second World War, the link between effective training and mission readiness has never been stronger.In this episode of CAE Catalyst, we examine some of the critical enablers powering military training transformation; innovative new tools and approaches available to military training programs seeking to produce a greater number of graduates that are trained better, faster and cheaper. We will discuss how advances in the science of learning, including biometrics, cognitive performance measures, and neuroscience are informing training system design. Our discussion will also provide a deeper understanding of how learning tools and practice integrate to deliver outcome-focused training systems tuned for efficiency, effectiveness, and affordability.Training, Adaptive Learning, Modernization, Military modernization, digital innovation, defense, DoD, technology, innovation, simulation, instructional design, education, military, defense training, machine learning, artificial intelligence, synthetic environments, data analytics, biometrics, cognitive performance, neuroscience, science of learning.Regan Patrick, Chief Learning Officer, CAE Defense & SecuritySandro Scielzo, PhD Human Systems Technical Authority,R&D and Joint Operations,Defense & Security, CAE USADr. Arnd HelmetagHead of Flight Operations Center EMEADefence & Security, CAE GmbH

Evolving global threats and environments are forcing defense and security organizations around the world to reconsider long-held beliefs about technical skills training.CAE explores some of the key drivers in defense training transformation – elements that contribute to the growing demands for more student output; graduates who are trained better, faster, and cheaper. Links are drawn between instructional design, education technology, and the desired learning objectives driving defense organizations to investigate innovative new ways of focusing on student needs, including the use of non-traditional approaches to technical skills training.Host: Regan Patrick - Chief Learning Officer, CAE Defense & SecurityGuests: Deborah Mackinnon - Manager D&S Courseware and Training SolutionsTerry Gaylord - Senior Manager, Instructional Systems GroupPodcast Tags: Training, Adaptive Learning, Modernization, Military modernization, digital innovation, defense, DoD, technology, innovation, simulation, instructional design, education, military, defense training

Evolving global threats and environments are forcing defense and security organizations around the world to reconsider long-held beliefs about technical skills training. Tried and true instructional tools and approaches that have yielded successful outcomes in the past are no longer able to support requirements for increasing capacity, speed, and capability. This is prompting military services to investigate modern approaches to instructional design and education technology.Host: Regan Patrick, Chief Learning Officer, CAE Defense & SecurityGuests: Dr. Gary Eves, Principal Technology Officers, CAE Defense & Security, Australia and Maryse Carmichael, Special Advisor Aircrew Training, CAE Defense & Security, CanadaPodcast tags:Training, Adaptive Learning, Modernization, Military modernization, digital innovation, defense, DoD, adaptive learning, technology, innovation, simulation.

In 1982 Theresa became the very first African American female pilot in the United States Air Force. Then, in 1990, Theresa joined the world of commercial aviation and is now one of the very few black, female Airline Captains in the USA. In addition to her successful flying career Theresa is one of the founding members of “Sisters of the Skies” who aim to “develop pathways and partnerships to increase the number of black women in the professional pilot career field”.

Theresa is a true trailblazer and it was a great pleasure to hear her story!
