Solution Overview

Problem

Current training systems for public servants are outdated and insufficient, leading to inefficiencies in recording and evaluating trainees, lack of standardized categorization, and inadequate integration with other departmental functions, resulting in suboptimal training focus and increased risk.

Innovation Solution

A centralized graphical user interface and integrated system for training and evaluation that includes a training module to track only catastrophic violations, an evaluation module for assessments and certifications, and a reporting module to generate comprehensive training reports, allowing for standardized scoring and data integration across various departmental functions.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If all violations or deficiencies are recorded in training records, then complete documentation of training issues is achieved, but subjective judgement creates different standards and expectations from training event to training event

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedocumentation completenessVSAvoidevaluation consistency
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The system changes the parameter of recording from subjective human judgment to objective automated detection. The training management system automatically detects violations and deficiencies during training events and records them without subjective interpretation, ensuring consistent standards across all training events while maintaining complete documentation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Ease of operation

If manual entry of training data is used, then flexibility in recording is maintained, but significant hours are wasted by trainers that could have been used more effectively

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecording flexibilityVSAvoidadministrative time
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The training management system performs self-service by automatically detecting, recording, and managing training data without requiring manual entry by trainers. The system autonomously captures training event information, violation data, and trainee performance metrics, eliminating the time-consuming manual administration process while maintaining operational flexibility.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system replaces the mechanical manual data entry process with an automated electronic system. The training management system electronically captures and stores training data, violations, and evaluations, substituting the time-consuming manual writing and filing process with automated digital recording that occurs instantaneously during training events.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

3Device complexity

If training sessions are recorded as single subject only, then simplicity of recording is maintained, but poor visibility of trainer to assess which training subjects require more focus

Engineering Contradiction:
Improverecording simplicityVSAvoidtraining subject visibility
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system segments the training recording process into multiple independent subject tracks. The training management system can record and track multiple training subjects simultaneously within a single training session, allowing each subject to be individually monitored and assessed. This segmentation enables the trainer to see which subjects require more focus while maintaining an organized, manageable recording structure.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

AI summary

Systems and related methods for a training protocol are described. The system and methods may include a graphical user interface where after selecting an evaluated trainee and an evaluated task, a score input region populates certain features associated with the evaluated trainee and the evaluated task, including a score region. Furthermore, the systems and methods may further include generating a training report which is configured to receive a plurality of training subjects. In some aspects, generating the training report further includes preventing certain portions of the training report from further edits after a pre-determined event occurs.
