The Ready Relevant Learning (RRL) Prize Challenge was a call to action for innovators to revolutionize military training through cutting-edge technology. The challenge, presented by the Department of Defense (DoD) and the Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD), sought solutions that could streamline Instructional Systems Design (ISD) analysis, a critical process in developing effective training programs for military personnel.

The Challenge

The brief was to demonstrate initial proof of concept prototypes using Artificial Intelligence (AI) Large language models to automate the process of conducting ISD analysis, requirements development, for Ready Relevant Learning (RRL).

VPS’s Solution: Architect

VPS answered the challenge with its innovative „Architect“ solution. Architect leverages the power of AI large language models (LLMs) to automate various aspects of ISD analysis, including task analysis, learning analysis, and media selection. By harnessing the capabilities of LLMs, Architect accelerates the analysis process, enabling training developers to create more targeted and impactful training programs in less time.

Expected Benefits

VPS’ Architect solution promises a range of benefits for military training and human performance:

• Accelerated ISD Analysis: The automation of key ISD (Instructional Systems Design) analysis tasks significantly reduces the time and effort required to develop training programs.
• Enhanced Training Effectiveness: By providing deeper insights into tasks, learning objectives, and optimal media selection, Architect enables the creation of more targeted and effective training experiences.
• Improved Military Readiness: The ability to rapidly develop and deploy training programs ensures that military personnel are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to meet evolving challenges.
• Optimized Human Performance: Architect’s focus on aligning training with performance objectives helps maximize the potential of military personnel.

Recognition and Future Collaboration

VPS’s Architect solution was recognized for its innovation and potential impact, earning the second-place prize in the RRL Prize Challenge. This achievement not only underscores the effectiveness of Architect but also opens doors for future collaboration with industry leaders and defense organizations. VPS is committed to further developing Architect and exploring its applications in various training and human performance contexts.
