The purpose of this article is to describe the Training Effectiveness Algorithm. The Training Effectiveness Algorithm is to provide a systematic procedure for identifying the cause of a reported training problem in a training system or program within an ongoing organization. This Algorithm was developed for use in the U.S. Navy's submarine program. As a two step procedure it uses job incumbents and available resources to analyze and identify problems within the training program. Its usefulness for assisting in programs outside of the Navy becomes apparent.
