Senior Trainer/Team Lead for the National Training Center Suppor

Synopsis: The overall goal of the JTCOIC is to provide expertise and training to units deploying to theater on efficient and effective utilization of the Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO) Counter-IED Operations Integration Center (COIC). The JTCOIC is responsible for coordinating the training of deploying units on joint, national and interagency intelligence, CIED and emerging asymmetric capabilities gleaned from the JIEDDO COIC; integrating processes, practices, concepts and materiel capabilities into Joint and Service DOTMLPF solutions; and coordinating with the US Army and Marine combat training centers to provide realistic enemy and environmental signatures into training scenarios in support of realistic intelligence collection and analysis. This position is located at Ft. Irwin, CA.

The Joint Training Counter-IED Operations Integration Center (JTCOIC) Training Division trainers must have in-depth understanding of how U.S. forces conduct irregular warfare, how IED threat networks operate and how the COIC functions to counter IED networks and other asymmetric threats. JTCOIC trainers train tactical level war fighting commanders and staff prior to deployment into either OEF/OIF on the Counter Improvised Explosive Device Operations Integration Center’s (COIC’s) reach-back capability processes, computer-based tools, and Attack the Network methodologies. Trainers must competently present briefings, demonstrations of computer-based COIC tools, and hands-on training, primarily at home station, the Service Training Centers, and Joint MRXs. JTCOIC trainers must effectively achieve COIC proficiency in deploying staffs by applying the “teach the man to fish” philosophy so that upon arrival in theater, units can fully exploit the reach-back capability of the COIC portal with its vast tool sets and fully utilize the COIC analysts’ ability to provide fused intelligence products to fill intelligence gaps. As the JTCOIC matures, the Training Division trainers will engage a wider training audience, to include the staffs of joint task forces, corps, divisions, support brigades, warfighting battalions, Special Operations Forces, and Service training institutions. In the future, trainers will also train commanders and staffs of other COCOMs that are deploying to other theaters of operation.
