What do Civil-Military Innovative Readiness Training (IRT) Programs do for the Military Services and the individual service member?
– Commanders of units approve innovative readiness training initiatives that are compatible with their Mission Essential Task List (METL), which supports their wartime mission, and/or the military occupational specialties of their personnel. Combat units and personnel are not generally used to accomplish these IRT initiatives. Civil-military initiatives provide a commander a unique type of “hands-on” morale enhancing training. – IRT enhances the military’s image within our hometown communities and offer “real world” training in a “hands on” environment. – Civil-military programs have a very positive impact on recruiting and retention by providing our military personnel, especially the Guard and Reserve components, an opportunity to training in support of their communities in which they live and help make a difference.
