Name
#180 - Corpsman Performance Assessment Program: Data Driven Training Plans, Enhanced Risk Mitigation, and Informed Talent Management
Date & Time
Monday, February 12, 2024, 12:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Description

Currently, there is no canonized evaluation or standards of proficiency that identifies a Corpsman as being ready for operational Marine Corps forces beyond entry level training received upon arrival to a Marine duty station. Historically, Corpsman readiness for assignment to a Marine unit is a subjective qualification based on observations by Navy leadership and has led to large variance in unit-to-unit performance. The Corpsman Performance Assessment Program (CPAP) is specifically designed to evaluate and quantify individual performance in four domains essential for all Corpsman assigned to Marine Units: physical fitness, battlefield medicine under physiologic stress, and medical and tactical knowledge. In this session we will define the standards of performance based on USMC and Navy publications, demonstrate how this data is collected, composited, and interpreted to develop data driven training plans, enhanced risk mitigation, and inform talent management/distribution of personnel across all levels of command from Platoon through Division.
