baseline understanding of how software functions within modu- lar, open-systems architectures, in the systems-of-systems that will integrate Soldiers and materiel, and how those interoperate, will promote the digital transformation so critical to our Soldiers against pacing threats.
“Our software development process and approaches must be modernized to enable smaller, faster, incremental delivery of capabilities and drive” toward continuous integration and contin- uous deployment, Bang said.
Providing the training to do that will be central to enabling our Army Acquisition Workforce to support this mission. Te Defense Acquisition University is working on building out knowl- edge areas and credentials in software development, DevSecOps, artificial intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity that will be avail- able at the foundational level.
My office is also expanding or tailoring some of our training and development programs to allow for more targeted focus in
science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). For exam- ple, our Leadership Excellence and Acquisition Development (LEAD) program now includes an infusion of unique digital technology experiential and training opportunities, (i.e., IT, cyber, AI and human systems integration). “Te Army is going to scale the heck out of AI,” Bang said.
We are also partnering with academic institutions and industry, many of which are currently leading the way in the digital trans- formation space, in an effort to learn from and leverage their best practices. We recently launched a new digital transformation training course at Carnegie Mellon University’s Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy in Pittsburgh (see “First Digital Transformation Training,” on Page 105).
In addition, we’re sponsoring a two-week-long digital data user’s skill-development course for our midgrade professionals, so that they better understand how to identify which data methods and tools can be used to solve problems. Tese training opportunities were made possible because Section 8080 of the “Consolidated
