Conference Planner with Security Clearance

ClearanceJobs Colorado Springs, CO

Conference Planner Overall capability requirement: The North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) are separate commands. Both leverage the commander's singular vision and guidance; develop plans to meet challenges in the same strategic and operational environments; build complementary mission approaches; and share a common goal of defense of the United States and Canada. Our competitors have analyzed our ability to operate overseas and have invested in capabilities such as ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, hypersonic weapons, small unmanned aircraft systems, artificial intelligence, cyber capabilities, and delivery platforms to offset our strengths while exploiting our perceived weaknesses. These advancing capabilities embolden competitors and adversaries to challenge us at home, looking to threaten our people, our critical infrastructure and our power projection capabilities. These challenges have generated a strong demand for not only changes in operations, but changes in the corresponding education and training programs supporting force employment, development, and design. You will join a team that performs analysis, assessment and integration in support of the Joint Training, Exercises, and Wargaming Directorate (N&NC/J7). We, collectively, provide the commands' analytical methodology, to include Modeling & Simulation (M&S), necessary to develop and improve requirements-based training and readiness programs and ensure integration with the global DoD Joint Training community, interagency, and international partners. Our team provides the analytical capability to enhance command resources and readiness, augment (N&NC) training and exercise programs with correlated data resulting from in-depth analyses of real-world events, and inform future Joint Training Plans. We will focus on assessing the results and effects of government deployed training programs, events, and operations on mission readiness. Our team informs the commands' return on investment data and supports targeted changes and enhancements to N&NC's Training, Exercises, and Wargaming Programs. Base Qualifications:
