Synthetic Training Systems (December 2) covers virtual and augmented reality applications, artificial intelligence and machine learning for training, distributed training environments, drone technologies, human performance measurement, and simulation fidelity enhancements. Warfighter Training Support (December 3) focuses on training effectiveness analysis, curriculum development, mobile training teams, performance support systems, training management systems, and emerging training methodologies.

PM TRASYS will evaluate meeting requests based on technological relevance to Marine Corps requirements and reserves the right to prioritize requests based on available resources. All participation costs are borne by interested parties.
