Thank you.
Admiral McDonald, you talked a bit about our men and women and the training, recruitment, retention that goes on in our Canadian Armed Forces. You mentioned in your testimony the use of technology to reduce the time it takes to achieve competency. I know that the Canadian Armed Forces has applied DAOD 5031-1, which is prior learning assessment and recognition for the recruitment of our Canadian Armed Forces members so that they're not being trained again for competencies they already have.
Could you elaborate on some of the technologies you're using to reduce training, to get our men and women operational faster? No one wants to be retrained for something they already know. If you could talk a little about that with respect to andragogy and perhaps simulation, that would be helpful.
