Harkcon Coast Guard Training Support Services Associates are Recognized for a Job Well Done
Fredericksburg, VA (PRWEB) March 18, 2015 -- Rolando Diaz (Incident Command System (ICS) Instructor at TRACEN Yorktown (TCY)) has been the most-traveled, mobile ICS instructor over the past year. He travels to Coast Guard units all over the country to present required ICS curriculum and exercises to Coast Guard personnel. He recently received kudos from the Preparedness Officer at one of the Sectors he visited who writes “…I just wanted to let you know what a great job Rolando Diaz is doing in running/teaching the ICS-300 class...he is a great instructor, very dynamic, knows the material exceptionally well and manages the course in an exemplary manner.”
Jim Craumer (ISD at TRACEN Cape May, NJ) and Pam Pollara (Performance Analyst) will be recognized at this year’s International Society for Performance Improvement (ISPI) Awards recognition ceremony (on April 27th, 2015) and will receive an ISPI Award of Excellence for their work on the “United States Coast Guard (USCG)-Uniform Distribution Center (UDC) SOP, Uniform Issue and Training Handbook.” The SOP/Recruit Issue Handbook serves to reduce the training time required for a new hire to become a competent performer, ultimately resulting in a savings of training time and expense. Jim Craumer will also be leading a round table discussion at THE Performance Improvement Conference 2015 on “Accessing Your Organization’s Training Return on Investment (ROI) Using Culminating/Capstone Events.” You can read the entire abstract at http://www.performancexpress.org/2015/01/accessing-your-organizations-training-roi/
Paula Ross (Performance Analyst at FORCECOM Norfolk, VA) was acknowledged for her work on the Fuel Management TTP (tactics, techniques and procedures). Her outstanding performance in a very technically detailed area included expertly managing input from a diverse group of personnel during a very dynamic time period, and deftly leading multiple adjudication meetings. The resulting TTP is expected to be a critical addition to the Coast Guard's fiscal management efforts.
Nancy Almeida (Instructional Systems Designer (ISD) at Leadership Development Center in New London, CT) was recognized for her recent work with the Coast Guard Officer Candidate School (OCS) curriculum review. A LCDR writes to Nancy “…you are doing an amazing job and we are very lucky to have your historical knowledge and instructional design expertise. Your efforts are making a huge impact on the OCS Program and will greatly benefit the performance of future Officers in the Coast Guard. Thanks for all you do!” Later in the month, Nancy also received recognition for her contributions to a working group that designed the Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) training through the Leadership & Management School (LAMS).
Celeste Jackson (Performance Analyst at TRACEN Petaluma, CA) was recognized as project lead on the Cutter Systems Manager (CSM) Job Definition and Training Requirements Analysis.
