OVERVIEW
2. Responsibilities
(1) Establish training readiness standards for CVNs and monitor training readiness of
each ship throughout the readiness cycle.
(2) Ensure all CVN ULT and assessment events are planned and executed as prescribed
by this instruction per the OFRP cycle. TYCOMs will coordinate with the Commander, Carrier
Strike Groups (COMCARSTRKGRU) and numbered fleet commanders (NFC) to ensure these
events and other operational requirements (e.g., fleet replacement squadron carrier
qualifications) are properly scheduled and reflected in NFC operational schedules.
(5) Conduct a CVN training planning conference with the ship, COMCARSTRKGRU
and afloat training group (ATG) to brief ULT evolutions from crew certification (crew cert)
through the final evaluation problem (FEP) period.

assigned COMCARSTRKGRU.
(7) Provide notification via the record of changes posted on the COMNAVAIRPAC web
site and via naval message upon updates and changes of training assessment cards (TACs) or the
training and readiness matrix (T and R Matrix) found at COMNAVAIRPAC host identity
protocol (HIP): https://cpf.navy.deps.mil/sites/cnap/default.aspx/.
b. COMCARSTRKGRUs
(2) Familiarize the COMCARSTRKGRU staff with the requirements and readiness
measures defined in this manual.
(3) Schedule training events and services as specified in the T and R Matrix (as
applicable). Work closely with the TYCOM, ATG commander, and COMCARSTRKGRUs
FOUR and FIFTEEN to maintain a balanced and efficient training plan.
(4) Ensure individual training requirements contained within the Fleet Training
Management Planning System (FLTMPS) are accurate
requirements.
(5) Ensure CVN crews are provided opportunities to conduct meaningful training and
maintain maximum readiness levels consistent with each stage of the OFRP.
c. ATG
(1) Provide subject matter experts (SME) to conduct ULT per COMNAVAIRFOR policy
and guidance.
(2) Coordinate scheduling of the shipboard training team (SBTT) course of instruction
skills and techniques to self-train.
(4) Participate in the CVN training planning conference with the ship,
COMCARSTRKGRU, and TYCOM to brief upcoming ULT evolutions from crew cert through
FEP.
(5) Maintain liaison with TYCOM and COMCARSTRKGRU throughout the OFRP to

(6) Provide the CVN, COMCARSTRKGRU, and TYCOM with standardized end of
mission reports (EOMR) as specified in the reporting formats maintained on the
COMNAVAIRPAC HIP under N7 directorate following each training phase. Reports will
document training shortfalls, recommend corrective actions and identify any TAC discrepancies
and possible corrective actions.
d. CVN COs
(1) Comply with the requirements specified in this instruction, particularly the training
requirements specified in the T and R Matrix and in FLTMPS.
(2) Place primary emphasis for CVN training plans and schedules on attainment and
maintenance of maximum mission area readiness.
e.
(1) Have a clear understanding of training and resource requirements as outlined in the
T and R Matrix and TACs located on the COMNAVAIRPAC HIP under N7 directorate.
(2) Ensure the material condition of the ship supports a safe training environment.
(3) Develop tailored training scenarios and schedule of events (SOE) to support ULT
evolutions.
(5) Provide ATG training liaison officer (TLO) a copy of all required training
information, for example: Battle orders, watch team replacement plans (WTRP), watch bills,
training simulation information, training team designations, and other reports (as required).
